Dramaturgy (Eve)

366 2 5
                                    

Knew it already fine, misery inside

At myself I would laugh, fallen down behind

But I don't know a thing, love or losing, see?

So I threw to the side any human in me

If I live in a lie of shallow words and empty replies

Then what am I?

Hitting walls of a stage that I couldn't break

Then it stuck in my head, gotta run away

Playing out like a scene, posing every lead

Near the end of the show, waiting in the wing, see?

Run to the front stage, you're all actors anyway, no one to watch

You're all part of the play

There's no one inside me

There's no one that's hiding

Always been me, empty, a body but nobody here to see

(Chorus 1)

So hurry up and bite down whoever you found

Game over, give it up now

Mayday, a double agent
Struggling over love and discontent

And here I wait for something to twist the plot dramatically again

Oh you too yes yes so take a deep breath

You know how this'll all end

Head shot, we took it too far

But if you aim, go for the heart

We're pulling at the boundary, unseen

A curtain dyed in black soon came to be

And knowing that those eyes are watching...

Broke it all with a touch if I do recall

Hiding all the shame, all I did was fall

We were young, never bound by a single sin

Til before we could see, we were monsters in skin

But even I had tried to move on, why can't I leave my past?

"Considering it's you, better give up soon"

"Cuz no matter what you do, you will always lose"

And then I was alone way before I knew
Blocking every little thought that I couldn't sit through

All they want now is safety from what's around

Waiting for help but never learning how

I don't wanna think now

I'll play dumb anyhow

Always been me, empty, a body but nobody here to see

So standing at the front line and maybe this time

I'll be there with a flag high

Outmatched but easygoing
Never gonna need a script with me

And here I keep them burning to twist the plot dramatically again

Oh you too yes yes so take a deep breath

Swear that you'll see me again

One chance is all I have now

And so I better make it count
Climatic ending, come see

The final act, I'm shaken to my knees

Yet crying and lonely

The world that I locked out is nowhere to find
The people who mocked me are gone from my sight

Emotions and feelings are useless to keep

The tears that had fallen were not mine to weep

The kindness and warmth, I can't feel them at all

The hands that are offered, I'm scared that I'll fall

The hole dug inside me can't hold any love

Instead, you can see me break down from above

Hey, remember when you saw that they were nearing their end?

And you looked like you were laughing at the pain they were in

But what did you see? Oh really what could it be

Well, take a breath 'cuz you'll need it, so c'mon saying

Always been me, empty, a body but nobody here to see

(Repeat chorus 1)
