Lyrics Act V. A Million Nights - No Need To Stay

Act V. A Million Nights

MORGUE: A stage made of glass, as fragile as me
Do you love the person I am or the person that you want me to be?
How am I supposed to be myself when I am just a puppet on a string?
But I knew from the start
I need to hide these scars
'Cause I was cursed with a mechanical heart
CAST OFCHARACTERS: Turn off the lights,
Dressed to the nines
And we’re ready to tear the night apart
Oh, oh
And we’ll tear the night apart
MORGUE: Tonight the curtains fall again
And the spotlight’s melting the mask on my face
I hope they can’t see, I hope they can’t see what I’ve been hiding in the
darkness of my eyes
The show must go on
But what’s the price I pay?
All those precious, flashing lights just shine through the devil that keeps me
away
Do you read my lips when I’m singing these songs?
Or have you ever read the look on my face?
And I can’t find a way to admit that I’ve made an awful mistake
Tell me, how am I supposed to be your savior
When love and tragedy is all I’m made of?
But I knew from the start
I need to hide these scars
'Cause I was cursed with a mechanical heart
