thongrider Posted May 12, 2018 Report Share Posted May 12, 2018 I haven't posted lyrics here in a while, but I sort of need somewhere to write it down. I probably won't be able to read what I read down on paper later. The Leading Role Verse 1 In this film there's no director Just a lot of method actors And no one knows when they'll say "It's a wrap" You just gotta wonder why they don't get bored there's no reward, there's no award And no one knows who's gonna pay the tab Chorus You play the leading role The first person on the set You are in control And don't you ever let anyone say it's just a scene you stole A movie sure brings on regret But don't you ever forget That you play the leading role Verse 2 In this theater there is no script Just a cradle and a crypt Can't you hear the ringing of the bells? It may not be the finest of arts But it can still touch a lot of hearts And you might give the most important parts to someone else Chorus You play the leading role The first person on the set You are in control And don't you ever let anyone say it's just a scene you stole A play sure brings on regret But don't you ever forget That you play the leading role Bridge You play that role with precision You take your best and give it On some private mission if you mess it up, you won't forgive it Imagination, your unit is of thoughts and memories, so bright and vivid Life is full of opportunities And all you gotta do is live it Chorus You play the leading role The first person on the set You are in control And don't you ever let anyone say it's just a scene you stole Life sure brings on regret But don't you ever forget That you play the leading role You play the leading role Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melty Mark Posted May 14, 2018 Report Share Posted May 14, 2018 Other than the "Life is full of opportunities/And all you gotta do is live it" line I actually love this. That line is kinda cliche compared to the rest of the song though 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess I felt the song was kind of a cliché from the start and that the bridge sort of tied the rest of the song to the last chorus, but most people I've shown it to have hated that part.
