Masterpiece Theatre I Lyrics[Intro]
First it comes on quiet, creeping slow
Clever words and phrases only stain
I remain so
Lost and buried under everything that I need
When all I want is you

[Verse 1]
I've been here so very long
And every word is calculated
Never questioned or debated
All these practiced poses
I could wreck it if I had to
But I'm the wreck so what would that do?
[Pre-Chorus 1]
My masterpiece will fall apart
It was over before the start

[Chorus]
If I burn out and slip away
But this is just a part I portray
And this is just a part I portray
You're beautiful, can I hide in you a while?
But this is just a part I portray
And this is just a part I portray

[Verse 2]
They keep mostly to themselves
Don't make a sound in case they hear you
It only hurts me to be near you
Keep those tired eyes closed
Careful, follow my instruction
And I will show you self-destruction

[Pre-Chorus 2]
This masterpiece is only mine
Entirely guilty by design

[Chorus]
If I burn out and slip away
But this is just a part I portray
And this is just a part I portray
You're beautiful, can I hide in you a while?
But this is just a part I portray
Can I hide in you awhile?
[Bridge]
I just can't let it, let it out
No, I just can't let it out
I just can't let it, let it out
No, I just can't let it out
I just can't let it, let it out
No, I just can't let it out
I just can't let it, let it out
No, I just can't let it out

[Outro]
But this is just a part I portray
You're beautiful, can I hide in you a while?
You're beautiful
If this is just a part I portray
If this is just a part I portray
I don't know how it got this way2
