lirik lagu aryen sainté - standing ovation
[intro]
i see the room full of people who call you a friend
i see the smile that you wear just to make it to the end
you shine so bright but you’re breaking inside
and no one notices, no one tries
[verse 1]
i could win an emmy for the way i pretend
that i’m okay, that the pain will mend
every laugh, every joke, every line i rehe~rs~
covers up a silence that always hurts
funny how the roles don’t come my way
when i’ve been acting through life every single day
i’m the best in town, but no one sees
the mask i wear is k!lling me
[pre~chorus]
you’ve been carrying the weight in disguise
living in the crowd but alone at night
but behind that mask, behind those eyes
is a soul that refuses to die
[chorus]
standing ovation, but no one knows
every smile is a part of the show
standing ovation, the curtain falls
but who claps for the one who loses it all
standing ovation, i take my bow
i fooled the world, but i see it now
power was mine when i dropped the role
i don’t need applause to know my soul
[verse 2]
i’ve seen the cost of keeping it clean
of holding your breath so you don’t scream
you let the world see only the light
while you fight your demons alone at night
but every performance leaves its trace
every fake smile etched on your face
and yet in the cracks, the truth breaks through
that the strongest role was always you
[pre~chorus]
i thought my worth was in who believed
in the lies i sold, in the roles i’d keep
but the truest stage, the truest art
was showing the world my broken heart
[chorus]
standing ovation, but no one knows
every smile is a part of the show
standing ovation, the curtain falls
but who claps for the one who loses it all
standing ovation, i take my bow
i fooled the world, but i see it now
power was mine when i dropped the role
i don’t need applause to know my soul
[verse 3]
now when i walk through a crowded room
i don’t hide the weight, i don’t hide the wounds
cause strength isn’t silence, it’s telling the truth
it’s saying i’m broken but i’m still proof
and if the world won’t give me the part i crave
i’ll build a story from the scars they gave
the final act is mine to write
and i’m not afraid of the light
[bridge]
every mask will fade away
every role just leads astray
but the truth is worth the pain
and i won’t act again
[final chorus]
standing ovation, but no one knows
every smile is a part of the show
standing ovation, the curtain falls
but who claps for the one who loses it all
standing ovation, i take my bow
i fooled the world, but i see it now
power was mine when i dropped the role
i don’t need applause to know my soul
[outro]
i don’t need applause
to know my soul
