The Act Lyrics

And you know I, know I want to, but you, but you know I can't afford to lose again

I've got no chance to ever win, unless I find the will within

(Gotta pick up all the weight before it's too late)

And you know I, know I want you, but you, but you know it's just impossible

There's no way down this broken road

But when I'm home and all alone, it's you I feel I'm not alone

Hold up

Wait a second

It's just what I thought, it's deja vu

Well hello there, friend, why how are you

Long time no see, say what's the news?

I've got a couple pies

I've gotta exercise

Counter all their lies, and make up my disguise

I gotta think twice so I can sleep at night

It's like I'm running from a shadow, made of ice, and I do all I can, man, just to play nice

But the constant drone of headlights makes it hard to think right

Be the good guy, man, but is it really worth the fight

I don't know, it really keeps me up at night

One thing you need to make sure that you get right

Is it's past your bedtime, say nighty night when the sun comes up, you'll see the light

And you know I, know I want to, but you, but you know I can't afford to lose again

I've got no chance to ever win, unless I find the will within

(Gotta pick up all the weight before it's too late)

And you know I, know I want you, but you, but you know it's just impossible

There's no way down this broken road

But when I'm home and all alone, it's you I feel I'm not alone

Hold up

Wait a second

It's just what I thought, it's me and you

Well hello there, friend, why I am you

Long time no see, did you hear the news?

I bought a couple pies

I've gotta exercise

Bring the bags insides, and makeup's in my eyes

I had to think twice just to make the right right

It's like I'm living in a shadow in the light, made of ice, and I'm chasing after all the wrong guys

But I have no other choice now, tell me really do I

He's the good guy, man, but is it really worth the fight

I don't know, it really keeps me up at night

One thing you need to make sure that you get right

Is it's past your bedtime, say nighty night

When the sun comes up, we'll see the light

And you know I, know I want to, but you, but you know I can't afford to lose again

I've got no chance to ever win, unless I find the will within

(Gotta pick up all the weight before it's too late)

And you know I, know I want you, but you, but you know it's just impossible

There's no way down this broken road

But when I'm home and all alone, it's you I feel I'm not alone
