MARIANAS TRENCH lyrics : "Masterpiece Theatre I"

First it comes on quiet, creeping slow
Clever words and phrases only stain
I remain so, lost and buried under everything that I need,

When all I want it you

I've been here so very long

And every word is calculated
Never questioned or debated
All these practiced poses

I could wreck if I had to
But I'm the wreck so what would that do?
My masterpiece will fall apart

It was over before the start

If I burn out and slip away

This is just a part I portray
And this is just a part I portray
You're beautiful, can I hide in you a while?

This is just a part I portray
And this is just a part I portray


They keep mostly to themselves
Don't make a sound in case they hear you
It only hurts me to be near you

Keep those tired eyes closed
Careful, follow my instruction
And I will show you self-destruction

This masterpiece is only mine
Entirely guilty by design


If I burn out and slip away
This is just a part I portray
And this is just a part I portray

You're beautiful, can I hide in you awhile?
This is just a part I portray
Can I hide in you awhile?


I just can't let it, let it out
No I just can't let it out

I just can't let it, let it out
No I just can't let it out
I just can't let it, let it out

No I just can't let it out
I just can't let it, let it out
I just can't let it

(Whoa, no no.)

This is just a part I portray

You're beautiful, can I hide in you a while?
You're beautiful
If this is just a part I portray

If this is just a part I portray
I don't know how it got this way
