lyrics

Its like I know whats going to happen
Scan the crowd looking for a pattern
I don’t know what to say
Today seems staged

And the the words that the people are using
Don’t seem to be of their own choosing
Script read off a page
Today seems staged

Today the people are hitting their mark
A mobile phone and a character arc
And all I can see is scenery
Today the children run on tracks
I’m left waiting for the second act
None of this feels real to me

And all the movements feel rehearsed
The seams on the costumes are fit to burst
No one acts their age
Today seems staged
Everyones looking for a cue
Someone to prompt them what to do
Think about your wage
Today seems staged

Today the people are hitting their mark
A mobile phone and a character arc
And all I can see is scenery
Today the children run on tracks
I’m left waiting for the second act
None of this feels real to me
