The Act We Act Lyrics - Copper Blue - Sugar

Im watching you walk 

As you walk that distant way 

Take that thing away from me 

Take away most everything 

I couldn't say Id blame you 

But you should never look in back 

You wouldn't be to blame 

If you couldn't take it back 

Hours slipping by as you watch 

The worlds collide 

And now youre nothing more 

Than another passerby 

The dark it turns to light 

In a distant flash of night 

I'm rolling with the tide, I confide 

The act we wear it thin again 

If affection holds you back 

Oh, then what is left to hold 

If I could find the answer 

To that question then Id know 

The thoughts that clutter up your mind 

And leave me feeling drained 

And walking, pacing up the walls 

Across the floor again 

And all the things I havent seen 

Once the final curtain has been raised 

The act, we act is wearing thin 

The act, we act we under my skin 

The words, the words we said goodbye 

The words left choking in my mind 

The act, we act is wearing thin 

I think we wear it out again 

Another big explosion 

Leaving you hoping 

That something that once held you down 

Could leave you feeling on the ground 

The confusion that persists 

Decisions that you guessed 

The one to stay and watch this 

The one you might have missed 

All the things I havent seen 

Once the final curtain has been raised 

The act, we act is wearing thin 

The act, we act we under my skin 

The words, the words we said goodbye 

The words left choking in my mind 

The act, we act is wearing thin 

I think we wear it out again, now 

The act, we act we under my skin, now 

The act, we act we under my 

Forming a conclusion 

And youre left standing
