matthew ray - day 6: all the world's a stage كلمات الأغنية

[verse 1]
i remember letters
the stripped_down necessity of communication
e_mails were priceless gems among a sea of paper and ink
now, i discard oceans of e_mails every day
and wish someone would write me

[verse 2]
i took carefully positioned photos with a camera
of little things like puddle reflections and birds
pictures were for art and being framed for mom
now, i scroll through everyone’s face i wish i had
and vacations that i wish i could afford

[pre_chorus]
everyone can publish music
everyone can film a movie
everyone can…try to draw
n0body can be seen
and even if you can
you can’t feel it
(ooh)

[chorus]
all the world’s a stage, so perform your little circus
you’re special and unique, i promise, just ask your mom
wear your pretty clown mask
anybody can be anything
you can say whatever you need
if you have someone to say it to
[verse 3]
i wrote in my notebook
stories and ideas and random thoughts
to record the things that filled my brain
for myself for later on
now, i take down posts if i don’t get enough likes

[verse 4]
i only cared about my looks
for services at church two times a week
and even then it really was my mom who cared
now, i can’t go outside of my room, unless

[pre_chorus 2]
my hair is fixed
face washed, t__th shining like the moon
clothes clean and soft
with a smile that can change the mood
’cause i know i’ll be seen
and it matters what they see

[chorus 2]
all the world’s a stage, watch as i perform my service
i’m special and unique, i promise, just ask my mom
what’s under this superficial mask
inside i could be anything
i need somebody to talk to
i can’t hear anything, i need somebody to talk
(i need somebody… ooh)
[refrain]
say something that matters
say whatever you want
everyone’s shouting over each other
one at a time, please
i can’t understand all the yelling
i need somebody to talk

[refrain 2]
how can you be found when everyone is trying to be
one at a time, get in line, i swear you’ll get your turn
unless you don’t, who truly knows, i’m sorry
but sometimes all that you can do is talk

[bridge]
tell everyone what’s wrong
and all that’s going on
share every inward thought
let the teachers be taught
nothing’s more important
than what you want right now
so, say everything about everything
and say it all right now

[bridge 2]
don’t stop talking ’til you’re done
and don’t give up ’til you give
every little part of yourself to us, we want it all
don’t think for a second that n0body cares
’cause everybody does
and that’s why everybody shares
[bridge 3]
your opinions are priceless
and you should shout them all
what’s your thought on grapefruit prices
or the shooting at the mall
tell us, how was that new movie
how’s your grandma who has cancer
don’t you wish that you could die
don’t do that, become a dancer

[bridge 4]
change your name and your identity
no one wants you for you
i’m ashamed you’d ever think that
have you seen who you’re compared to
you could never measure up to these
mythological beings
because that’s all that they are
they’re not people, they’re personalities

[bridge 5]
social media icons made from millisecond photos
a feed of pictures doesn’t tell the story of a life
that girl just posted smiley faces on her father’s boat
just seconds after crying and before taking her life
she’s gone
we lost her, don’t lose yourself, too

[verse 5]
drop the façade, let your persona go
keep what’s private, we don’t need to know
we can’t pay you the cost of selling yourself
wealth is not as rich as mental health

[verse 6]
take care of yourself
the real one
i’ll always be here
if you need somebody to talk
