My life is a musical, I know how to put on a pretty pathetic show, I hide 
Backstage, keep the curtains closed, Cause I'm scared, I'm scared 

I'm getting pretty good at feeding them the lines they like, But I don't 
Recognize the girl I face each night, I [bad word] till I'm convinced 
It's right 

What happened to the girl who could overlook the world? She never gave a 
Second to what the other people thought, What happened to the dream of 
Rejecting the routine? Cause they never worked for me 

I'm gonna burn this theater down & pray to God for the strength to help me 
Face the crowd, I wanna live like I lost the script & scream every line 
Like "this is it!" 

They say all the world's a stage, Rewriting your itentity is all the rage, 
Well next act please, I'd like a change, I don't really like pretending 
This way 
What happened to the girl who could overlook the world? She never gave a 
Second to what the other people thought, What happened to the dream of 
Rejecting the routine? Cause they never worked for me 

I'm gonna burn this theater down & pray to God for the strength to help me 
Face the crowd, I wanna live like I lost the script & scream every line 
Like "this is it!" 

I'm gonna burn this theater down & pray to God for the strength to help me 
Face the crowd, I wanna live like I lost the script & scream every line 
Like "this is it!" 

& the sad thing is we're all in on the action, We're all holding our 
Breath, waiting for a reaction, You play your part, I'll be playing with 
Matches & if you'd like a show, you can follow the ashes 

I'm gonna burn this theater down & pray to God for the strength to help me 
Face the crowd, I wanna live like I lost the script & scream every line 
Like "this is it!" 

I'm gonna burn this theater down & pray to God for the strength to help me 
Face the crowd, I wanna live like I lost the script & scream every line 
Like... 

"This is it!"
