It's all an act.

Put my high heels on, I’m ready for today
The taste of last night still burning on my lips.
While last night is starting to become a faded memory I’m building up new ones
New place, new arms to hold, new lips to kiss
Just so I don’t have to feel the cold.

I’ve got this hole, where my heart used to be
It’s getting heavier and harder to hold.
It’s deep inside of me taking me over
Don’t recognize the person I’m becoming
It’s all an act.

Put my fake smile on, I’m starting to pretend
How wonderful life is when you’re right here
While my mind is somewhere else.
Asking for some attention
Just so I don’t have to feel the cold.

I’ve got this hole, where my heart used to be
It’s getting heavier and harder to hold.
It’s deep inside of me taking me over
Don’t recognize the person I’m becoming
It’s all an act.

Put that dress on that you like
Start being the sweetest version of me
I know exactly what I have to do to hold you tight.
I can pretend to be anything you want
Just so I don’t have to feel the cold.

I’ve got this hole, where my heart used to be
It’s getting heavier and harder to hold.
It’s deep inside of me taking me over
Don’t recognize the person I’m becoming
It’s all an act.

Even I don’t know the rules of the game I’m playing
But I know there will be victims
The damage is already done and there’s no way back.
So be a big girl and hold on to the act.
