Il testo della Masterpiece theater

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

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?

My masterpiece will fall apart
It was over before the start

If i burn out and slip away
If this is just a part i portray
If this is just a part i portray
You're beautiful, can i hide in you awhile?
If this is just a part i portray
If this is just a part i portray

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

This masterpiece is only mine
Entirely guilty by design

If i burn out and slip away
If this is just a part i portray
If this is just a part i portray
You're beautiful, can i hide in you awhile?
If this is just a part i portray
Can i hide in you awhile?

I just can't let it, let it out
No, i just can't let out
I just can't let it, let it out
No, i just can't let out
I just can't let it, let it out
No, i just can't let out
I just can't let it, let it out
No, i just can't let out

If this is just a part i portray
You're beautiful, can i hide in you awhile?
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 way
