Say It's True

Must we be just actors hitting marks?

Must just spotlights know us in the dark?

Must we live our lives out in the pages?

Must we play at lovers and friends

Before they haul us off the stage?

Oh say it’s true

That you are improvising

Oh say it’s true

That you

Are free and afraid like me

Oh say it’s true

That you are improvising

Oh say it’s true

That you aren’t getting prompts

And haven’t read ahead

We were not given a reading list

So it’s not shocking that we have missed

Some things that should have be clearer

But I swear they’re references

They won’t happen again

Oh say it’s true

That you are improvising

Oh say it’s true

That you

Are free and afraid like me

Oh say it’s true

That you are improvising

Oh say it’s true

That you aren’t getting prompts

And haven’t read ahead

Don’t read the end

Don’t even try to guess

Oh say it’s true

That you are improvising

Oh say it’s true

That you

Are free and afraid like me

Oh say it’s true

That you are improvising

Oh say it’s true

That you aren’t getting prompts

And haven’t read ahead
