Picture me, on stages final act
Wish I could save the best for las


Picture this, the curtain begins to fall
But not before blunt objects are thrown at me


Hold me down no more
Hold me down no more


Picture me, in the spotlight all by myself
My visions obscured by the bright lights above me


Picture this, I stumble until I fall
I leave it to you to rain on my parade


Hold me down no more
Hold me down no more


And I see you
One with the audience,
Making it obvious


This isn't where I belong
And I know that the show must go on

so I swallow my pride
and wait for this curtain to fall
To fall, oh

To fall, oh

Hold me down no more

Hold me down no more

And I see you

One with the audience
Making it obvious
This isn't where I belong, no

And I know that the show must go on
So I swallow my pride
And wait for this curtain to fall


And I see you
One with the audience

Making it obvious
This isn't where I belong
