"Silver Screen" lyrics

Do you ever wonder why people hurt, why people lie?
Forgetting to be human, lost 'til we die
I can tell the wood for the trees in the city that never breathes
I can tell my wounds from my knees but I know I want more

And I keep it together just enough to get by
I rehearse every line so it's prefect from the outside

But I'm looking for love, love underneath
All of the words we choose to speak
I'm looking for love, love like on a silver screen
I wonder if love, love is looking for me

Do you ever want to say what you mean, pack up and leave?
'Cause you're feeling like you're wasting your energy
When you know the shoe don't fit but you walk in it anyway
How they gonna find your heart when you're so unkind to it?

I'm gonna keep it together just enough to get by
I can smile for a while but it's only on the outside

But I'm looking for love, love underneath
All of the words we choose to speak
I'm looking for love, love like on a silver screen
I wonder if love, love is looking for me

I wanna say what I wanna say
I wanna do what I wanna do
Oh, but I feel vulnerable
I wanna say what I wanna say
Would it hurt if I tell the truth
Oh, is that so terrible?

But I'm looking for love, love underneath
All of the words we choose to speak
I'm looking for love, love like on a silver screen
I wonder if love is looking for me
