La scena

When lights are on, you shine as well Your words are magic as a spell But do they know your real name? Your moves are followed by their eyes And when you speak they're hypnotized Tonight will be the night of nights They only love you They only love you when you're playing You know the truth so why you're staying When deep inside you cry For all the pain, the pain you hide The curtains raise, the hands are clapping The curtains fall, the crowd keeps calling The player comes to play the part, the part he knows by heart Behind the curtains, darkness falls Some silent footsteps touch the floor Tonight you rain above them all With every role you slowly die You put your hideout on the line But knowing it, it makes you smile They only love you They only love you when you're playing You know the truth so why you're staying When deep inside you cry For all the pain, the pain you hide The curtains raise, the hands are clapping The curtains fall, the crowd keeps calling The player comes to play the part, the part he knows by heart (2X)
