She's an Actress

by the Wallows


[Verse 1]

Who's been out here? Hold your hand up

I could call it even if you never stand up

Two more blank eyes lookin' through me

Thinkin' of a place from where you maybe knew me


Been in search of new sensations

Now I'm just looking for some communication

Is there ever a simple answer?

She's a model, she's an actress, she's a dance


[Verse 2]

If the mood's right, we'll talk all night

It might be a road to nowhere, but it's alright

It might help me not feel empty

Have you learnеd something about me once you'vе left me?


What's the motive? What's the reason?

What's the right or wrong occasion for an evening?

I'm just craving a connection

Can you tell that I'm nervous just by my complexion?


Guess I'm gaining some momentum

Yeah, we've got a little tension and it's pent up

It means nothing, but I know one thing

I'll keep running until I crash into something


[Verse 3]

There's people knockin' at my door

Don't know if I can let 'em in

I need to be alone, not be taken away

I thought that I owed myself all this time


I don't want to be forgotten

But I've been avoiding being found

Maybe what I owe myself is an open heart

To someone I wanna keep around


[Verse 4]

Arms are reaching, eyes are open

It's my first time doing this, so here's to hopin'

She's a wonder, a sensation

She's like a figment of my imagination


Do your words hold hidden meaning?

Hold your gaze on me and I feel like I'm dreaming

I looked up to you above me

Said it's difficult to not say that you love me


[Outro]

And if you're ever at my door

You know I'll always let you in

I'm no longer afraid of being taken away

So give me your hand and I'll give you mine


I want to keep up with you

So could you tell me what you think feels good?

And if you want it, lovely girl, then you got it

I'll make you scream about it like you should
