[Verse 1]
Safe little house, safe little friends
Safe little thoughts to keep you safe
From all those big bad wolves that eat you up (Aww, shit)
Safe in your room, safe as a tomb
Sleep in a coffin made of glass
It takes a big facade to hide the cracks
[Pre-Chorus]
Can you make this last?
'Cause now I'm not so sure
Are you up to the task?
Sometimes the sickness is the cure
You're searching so hard
You've lost yourself
[Chorus]
Does it help you to pray as you're wasting away
Like a silver screen cliche?
'Cause after all we're actors on a stage
(Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
Will it help you to wait for the moment to break
Is it real or is it fake?
All we are, just chapters on a page
(Oh-oh, oh-oh. oh-oh, oh-oh)
'Cause after all we're actors on a stage
[Verse 2]
Hearing you now, shedding the doubts
They'll be no past or future tense
Regrets a waste of time and plans will change (Plans will always change)
Oh, some for the worst, some for the best
You know you can't always get your way (So selfish)
So worried about what's next, you lost today (Now you lost today)
[Pre-Chorus]
Can you make this last?
'Cause now I'm not so sure
Are you up to the task?
Sometimes the sickness is the cure
You're searching so hard
You've lost yourself
[Chorus]
Does it help you to pray as you're wasting away
Like a silver screen cliche?
'Cause after all we're actors on a stage
(Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
Will it help you to wait for the moment to break
Is it real or is it fake?
All we are, just chapters on a page
(Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
'Cause after all we're actors on a stage
[Bridge]
Can you let yourself, can you let yourself
Will you let yourself, will you let yourself let go?
Let go
Can you let yourself, can you let yourself
Won't you let yourself? Just let yourself let go
Let go
Safe little house, safe little friends
Safe little thoughts to keep you safe
[Chorus]
Does it help you to pray as you're wasting away
Like a silver screen cliche?
'Cause after all we're actors on a stage
(Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
Will it help you to wait for the moment to break
Is it real or is it fake?
All we are, just chapters on a page
(Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
[Outro]
Does it help you to pray as you faded away
Like a memory?
'Cause all we are just chapters on a page
And after all, we're actors on a stage
