This Stage Is Your Life - A Silent Film

Actors under stage lights

Housewives pleading for romance

Shadows in a looking glass

Are we off the script now?

When every eye is on you

You’re breaching the banks of the levee

Just say it once more with meaning

And you’ll be bringing the house down

But I don’t believe you’re suffering

I came to see the storm that caused the scar

Because this stage is your life…

Tragic or triumphant

To be holding out for screen play

And taking the direction

Until you pause for applause

Addicted to an art

Of curtain calls, costume and make-up

Just say it once more with meaning

And you’ll be bringing the house down

But I don’t believe you’re suffering

I need to see the storm that caused the scar

Because this stage is your life…

Burn your name in bright lights

And then night after night

You’ll repeat the same line

Repeat the same line, repeat the same line…

Because this stage is your life…
