[Verse 1]
I've never been much at making believe
Don't have any tricks hidden up my sleeve
If life is a comedy, where's all the laughter?
'Cause here on the stage, I'm a bad actor
I don't know what you want me to know
So I'll take the small parts in our family show
Tell me which hero you want me to play
How should I feel and what do I say?
[Chorus]
Pretending to care, pretending to cry
You say I'll be there and I say I'll try
Secondhand feelings are always a factor
In my starring role as a bad actor
[Verse 2]
Please let me know what you want me to see
And where do you want me to be?
In this old mirror, I'm just a reflection
But I might be brilliant, if you'd give direction
I have a problem of knowing what's real
All my emotions, I borrow and steal
Faking my way through every day
And trying to act like it's better that way
I've never been much at making believe
Don't have any tricks hidden up my sleeve
If life is a comedy, where's all the laughter?
'Cause here on the stage, I'm a bad actor
I don't know what you want me to know
So I'll take the small parts in our family show
Tell me which hero you want me to play
How should I feel and what do I say?
[Chorus]
Pretending to care, pretending to cry
You say I'll be there and I say I'll try
Secondhand feelings are always a factor
In my starring role as a bad actor
[Verse 2]
Please let me know what you want me to see
And where do you want me to be?
In this old mirror, I'm just a reflection
But I might be brilliant, if you'd give direction
I have a problem of knowing what's real
All my emotions, I borrow and steal
Faking my way through every day
And trying to act like it's better that way
