You’ve made quite a life for yourself  one better than you’ve dreamt   but it's weighing down  the sides of your mouth  to an appearing frown  there's more to it  than it might sound    sharpen your overacting skills  to cut through the tension  mark your words  with confidence:  selective attention    try and steady yourself  but with one hand down  losing balance  take a look at your hometown  you're a different person now  only one who hasn't changed  only one who's stayed the same    sharpen your overacting skills  to cut through the tension  mark your words  with confidence:  selective attention    Make it a point to appreciate the life you lead  don't rush the days you'll  wish they stayed for one year later    it's a tragic case of bad taste  but it's all concerning you  who truly can appreciate the  mess you've made    sharpen your overacting skills  to cut through the tension  mark your words  with confidence:  selective attention
