The thoughts that clutter up your mind
If affection holds you back
To that question then I’d know
The act, we act we under my skin
Hours slipping by as you watch
You wouldn't be to blame
The words left choking in my mind
And now you’re nothing more
Take away most everything
All the things I haven’t seen
And all the things I haven’t seen
The confusion that persists
The worlds collide
That something that once held you down
The act, we act is wearing thin
The words left choking in my mind
And leave me feeling drained
I'm rolling with the tide, I confide
If I could find the answer
Oh, then what is left to hold
The act, we act we under my skin
Forming a conclusion
In a distant flash of night
Another big explosion
The act, we act is wearing thin
The act we wear it thin again
I think we wear it out again, now
Could leave you feeling on the ground
And walking, pacing up the walls
If you couldn't take it back
The act, we act we under my skin, now
Once the final curtain has been raised
The words, the words we said goodbye
The dark it turns to light
But you should never look in back
The words, the words we said goodbye
Than another passerby
Leaving you hoping
Once the final curtain has been raised
The one to stay and watch this
The act, we act we under my
I couldn't say I’d blame you
Across the floor again
Take that thing away from me
The act, we act is wearing thin
Decisions that you guessed
I think we wear it out again
The one you might have missed
The act, we act is wearing thin
