All An Act

All An Act
I’m Acting Out
I guess that’s what they call it
But in time I will figure
Just what’s this all about

You’re Acting In
You keep it all bottled up
You cut your skin again
Save the blood in a cup

I would drink for you
If only I could
Just drink over you
Wouldn’t feel very good

To Get Over you
Or Did you get one over on me?
Have you moved on alone
Or do you still like what you see?

See I feel for you
Maybe more that I should
I would be numb-drunk again
If only I could

They say “Act As If”
As if I am there with you?
They say “Act Your Way”
Toward thinking Straight
You know my thoughts are tangents
Do we think the same way?

Acting Up
Like a spoiled little kid
Acting Up
Now they hate me for what I did

Acting Now
You see it’s all an Act
I can’t just be myself
When I’m with you
My fantasies come true
Were you just acting too?
Or did it suddenly all become too real?
