This Is Acting by Emma Grace Lyrics

Verse:

Late-night walking
Nowhere
But I’m happy
This is acting
It’s all performance darling

Won’t you come and see my show?
You can sit in the front row
It’s the closest I can get to real life
In the spotlight
I don’t feel -
I reflect what should be real
All my bruises look so stunning

Pre-Chorus:

You can be my Anthony tonight
I promise that you’ll feel alright
(Come enjoy the)
Limelight, high life
The highlights baby
This is the real deal
No jewelry baby
Fake love, real love
I fake on the daily, but I’m still shining
(Makeup is flakey)

Tell my friends
I’m sorry but they really shouldn’t worry
I’ve got it under control
Sex, drugs and rock and roll
Elegance is common sense
But we blur the lines
Between the fame and divine
Make-believe is not a crime

This is Acting
Breathe it in
I’ll play holy, fuelled on sin
This is Acting
(you can be my Anthony tonight)
This is Acting
(I promise that you’ll feel alright)
This is Acting
(sit on the balcony tonight)
This is Acting
(I promise that you’ll feel alright)
