"Actress" lyrics

"Actress"

She don't smile too much
But when she does it's just enough to make you smile back
And she don't cry too much
But when she does it's just enough to make you feel bad

She got dreams to be seen on screens by everyone
But underneath truly just wants to be known by anyone
She's in the fast lane making big waves so there's no time for her heart
Can't slow down now

She said it's easier to be an actress
Call me insane or call me an addict
But like champagne when it touches my lips
I can choose who I wanna be
Yeah it's easier to be an actress
Fresh tear stains I found on the mattress
Hide my pain I can never admit
That I'm sick of all this
But nuh uh it's easier to be an actress

She don't fall in love
Cause that would mean gotta let em see behind the mask
And she don't know enough
About how beautiful she is
Without all the magic tricks that she's hiding

She got dreams to be seen on screens by everyone
But underneath truly just wants to be close to anyone
But you gotta fake it till you make it
So there's no time to be real
Can't slow down now

She said it's easier to be an actress
Call me insane or call me an addict
But like champagne when it touches my lips
I can choose who I wanna be
Yeah it's easier to be an actress
Fresh tear stains I found on the mattress
Hide my pain I can never admit
That I'm sick of all this
But nuh uh it's easier to be an actress

But nuh uh it's easier to be an actress
It's easier...
