Melanie Martinez - Starring Role lyrics
[Melanie Martinez - Starring Role lyrics]
You're hard to hug, tough to talk to
And I never fall asleep when you're in my bed
All you give me is a heartbeat
I've turned into a statue
And it makes me feel depressed
'Cause the only time you open up
Is when we get undressed
You don't love me, big fucking deal
I'll never tell you how I feel
You don't love me, not a big deal
I'll never tell you how I feel
It almost feels like a joke
To play out a part
When you are not the starring
Role in someone else's heart
You know I'd rather walk alone
Than play a supporting role
If I can't get the starring role
Sometimes I ignore you, so I feel in control
'Cause really
I adore you and I can't leave you alone
Fed up with the fantasies that
Cover what is wrong
Come on, baby, let's just get drunk
Forget we don't get on
You're like my dad, you'd get on well
I send my best regards from Hell
It almost feels like a joke
To play out a part
When you are not the starring
Role in someone else's heart
You know I'd rather walk alone
Than play a supporting role
If I can't get the starring role
I never sang for love
I never had a heart to mend
Because before the start began
I always saw the end
Yeah, I wait for you to open up
To give yourself to me
But nothing's ever gonna give
I'll never set you free
Yeah I'll never set you free
It almost feels like a joke
To play out a part
When you are not the starring
Role in someone else's heart
You know I'd rather walk alone
Than play a supporting role
If I can't get the starring role
The starring role
And I never fall asleep when you're in my bed
All you give me is a heartbeat
I've turned into a statue
And it makes me feel depressed
'Cause the only time you open up
Is when we get undressed
You don't love me, big fucking deal
I'll never tell you how I feel
You don't love me, not a big deal
I'll never tell you how I feel
It almost feels like a joke
To play out a part
When you are not the starring
Role in someone else's heart
You know I'd rather walk alone
Than play a supporting role
If I can't get the starring role
Sometimes I ignore you, so I feel in control
'Cause really
I adore you and I can't leave you alone
Fed up with the fantasies that
Cover what is wrong
Come on, baby, let's just get drunk
Forget we don't get on
You're like my dad, you'd get on well
I send my best regards from Hell
It almost feels like a joke
To play out a part
When you are not the starring
Role in someone else's heart
You know I'd rather walk alone
Than play a supporting role
If I can't get the starring role
I never sang for love
I never had a heart to mend
Because before the start began
I always saw the end
Yeah, I wait for you to open up
To give yourself to me
But nothing's ever gonna give
I'll never set you free
Yeah I'll never set you free
It almost feels like a joke
To play out a part
When you are not the starring
Role in someone else's heart
You know I'd rather walk alone
Than play a supporting role
If I can't get the starring role
The starring role
