lyrics
you're a rainy day imposter
sing your songs so easy
live your life
under the bright lights
and you shine
when the curtain calls
maybe you'll sigh in the night
or cry out loud
or run away
but you can't turn back now
take a bow
tell 'em they can't count you out
there's somethin' sad
behind those eyes
that pretty smile
I wonder if I'll ever know
but you can hide
long as you want
'till the curtain falls
but don't stop now
maybe you'll sigh in the night
or cry out loud
or run away
but you can't turn back now
take a bow
tell 'em they can't count you out
I know the time is never right
tomorrow always, but never comes
gotta learn to live your life (pick your fights)
gotta learn to sacrifice (roll the dice)
under the spotlight
maybe you'll sigh in the night
or cry out loud
or run away
but you can't turn back now
take a bow
tell 'em they can't count you out
sing your songs so easy
live your life
under the bright lights
and you shine
when the curtain calls
maybe you'll sigh in the night
or cry out loud
or run away
but you can't turn back now
take a bow
tell 'em they can't count you out
there's somethin' sad
behind those eyes
that pretty smile
I wonder if I'll ever know
but you can hide
long as you want
'till the curtain falls
but don't stop now
maybe you'll sigh in the night
or cry out loud
or run away
but you can't turn back now
take a bow
tell 'em they can't count you out
I know the time is never right
tomorrow always, but never comes
gotta learn to live your life (pick your fights)
gotta learn to sacrifice (roll the dice)
under the spotlight
maybe you'll sigh in the night
or cry out loud
or run away
but you can't turn back now
take a bow
tell 'em they can't count you out
