Take Your Bow - David Myles

There’s a lot I don’t know, but I’ve known you for a while

And I know that it don’t mean much to see you wear a smile

'Cause you could fool the best of them, when you were falling apart inside

You could choose to confess to them, but instead you’ll continue to hide

But I hate say you’re not an actor and your life’s not a play

You’re going to break down

If you don’t find a way to tell the truth somehow

The stage is getting darker, so take your bow

It must have been something, someone, somewhere said

'Cause you got some silly ideas stuck up inside your head

Got you thinking you’ve got something to prove, that life is something you

either win or you lose

But I’m going to tell you now that that ain’t true that the only one really

missing out here is you

And I hate to say you’re not an actor and your life’s not a play

You’re going to break down

If you don’t find a way to tell the truth somehow

The stage is getting darker, so take your bow

Ain’t it time, you quit your lying

'Cause there’s no use in trying

To pretend that you don’t get hurt

And it’s alright, it’s okay

We’re all made of flesh and blood and we all know some sort of pain

You’re not an actor and your life’s not a play

Won’t you listen to me now, won’t you listen to me say

You’re going to break down

If you don’t find a way to tell the truth somehow

The stage is getting darker, so take your bow
