Performance

Lyrics

If I scream at the top of my lungs
 Will you hear what I don't say?
 If I dance like I'm on a stage
 Will you see I seem out of place?
 If I put on a disguise
 Will you think everything's alright?
 If I leave before the end
 Will you forget that I was there?
 When you saw me leaving
 Did you think I had a place to go?
 Since you stopped believing
 I've had to put on my own show
 ♪
 I'll put on a performance
 I'll put on a show
 It is a performance
 I do it all so
 
 You won't see my hurting
 When my heart it breaks
 I'll put on a performance
 I'll put on a brave face
 ♪
 Even when I was hurting
 You could always find me
 Now you've stopped looking for me
 But I'm still playing hide and seek
 I want you to notice
 But you just don't see
 The show is wasted on you
 So I perform for me
 When you saw me leaving
 Did you think I had a place to go?
 Since you stopped believing
 I've had to put on my own show
 ♪
 I'll put on a performance
 I'll put on a show
 It is a performance
 I do it all so
 You won't see my hurting
 When my heart it breaks
 I'll put on a performance
 I'll put on a brave face
