She was stuck in pictures 
While he passed time in film 
Oh silly fame, why do you play? 
Frame by frame, day by day 
With reels changing over 
And dropping to the sides 
Oh, solemn soul see where you are 
And look to the sides what you discard 
Press your lips to mine, breathe in deep and lie 
When the cameras roll, hide away your soul 
Flash your eyes, forge a smile, entertain 
But don't get stuck in something you hate 
Bring me the eyes of the earth 
Cut off the tongue of the world 
Keep the ends close in sight to the means that imply 
You're not living the life that you're worth 
Pressing your lips to mine, breathe in deep and lie 
When the cameras roll, hide away your soul 
Flashing your eyes to sell, lying to yourself 
Dodging truth form the start, hide away your heart 
Turn around forge a smile entertain 
But don't get stuck in something painful 
Something worse than nothing 
We could have been smart 
With the plot from the start 
Mistakes from the spark 
We knew it wasn't love 
Breathe in deep and lie 
When the cameras roll 
Hide away your soul 
Flash your eyes, forge a smile, entertain
