jackie ward (uk) - actors lyrics

[verse 1]
thundering rapture
rapturous applause
the scene is set, the end is staged
and i won’t say its ending
but it was dawning on depleted
i know, i know, i know, i know

[chorus]
we are actors
playing out a simple lie
two’s the audience
and we will pretend that we thrive
i don’t know if it brings me satisfaction
or the comfort in the lie
until the act reaches it end
we found a hollow lease of life

[verse 2]
idiosyncrasies in the plans that we made
morе animosity in the visits that i paid
i feel like we’rе living in a facsimile
of a long gone glowing glory
we retreat from the shared sp+ce of our past
your apathetic absence left us vacant and apart
the common grounds on which we once came so far
between old oak, grove and the prison bars
[chorus]
we are actors
playing out a simple lie
two’s the audience
and we will pretend that we thrive
now the stage is simply set for one
the ensemble has departed theyre gone

[refrain]
now we’re strangers i’m
swept by life’s unbroken tides
those 2 years of my life
we danced in the woodland, limbs beside
in undertow our restless sides
consumed by earthly youth’s desire
i wanted more out of my life

[chorus]
we are actors
playing out a simple lie
two’s the audience
and we will pretend that we thrive
i dont know if it brings me satisfaction
or the comfort in the lie
until the act reaches it end
we found a hollow lease of life
[outro]
in the wake of an unceremonious end
i lay in the empty sp+ce to which our time was once lent
