"Actress" lyrics

"Actress"

Isn't it unlike me
Oh, to leave without a trace?
I'm standing on your neighbor's porch
You're trying to read my face

I wasn't really changing
I know it gets so hard to tell
But New Years Resolution
Now I'm dancing by myself

But it's hard to tell a secret
When you know that it's a lie
And it's hard to be an actress
But I've been tryin'

Now what was I just sayin'
I heard your ride was on the way
I listen from the bathroom as I
Find the bathroom sink

With your mouth hanging open
As you stare into your phone
But New Years Resolution
Now I'm dancing all alone

But it's hard to tell a secret
When you know that it's a lie
And it's hard to be an actress
But I've been tryin'

To put the past aside
Try and ease your mind
Don't forget your lines
Don't forget to write
You're running out of time

Isn't it just like me
I'm crackin' up out of the blue
And sitting in the brightest sunshine
Sitting next to you
And then we hear the thunder
It's getting harder to ignore
But New Years Resolution
Watch me strut to the dancefloor

But it's hard to tell a secret
When you know that it's a lie
And it's harder to be an actress
When you're tryin'

To put the past aside
Try and ease your mind
Don't forget your lines
Don't forget to write
Don't forget to write
You're running out of time
You're running out of time
