(Verse 1)
We’re just two actors under the stage lights,
Reading the lines, rehearsing the fights.
We circle the truth, but never collide,
Caught in the wings, always denied.
Every word hangs heavy in the air,
Like we’re both too afraid to care.

​

(Pre-Chorus)
Why do we keep standing on this edge?
Tracing the cracks, but never the pledge.

​

(Chorus)
I don’t want to believe that love is just waiting,
Caught in a play that we’re always staging.
Two hearts so close, yet miles apart,
Dancing in shadows, guarding our hearts.
Why do we keep missing each other’s embrace,
When love’s right here, staring us in the face?

​

(Verse 2)
The curtain rises, but the story stays the same,
A script of longing, a tangled game.
The silence between us says all the words,
That we can’t speak, too scared to be heard.
I’ve been waiting for you to make the call,
But I’m tired of this endless stall.

​

(Pre-Chorus)
Why do we keep circling this flame?
Feeling the heat but never the name.

​

(Chorus)
I don’t want to believe that love is just waiting,
Caught in a play that we’re always staging.
Two hearts so close, yet miles apart,
Dancing in shadows, guarding our hearts.
Why do we keep missing each other’s embrace,
When love’s right here, staring us in the face?

​

(Bridge)
The lights are fading, the audience gone,
Still, we linger, pretending we belong.
If this is love, it’s tearing me in two,
Waiting for a love that never follows through.

​

(Chorus)
I don’t want to believe that love is just waiting,
Caught in a play that we’re always staging.
Two hearts so close, yet miles apart,
Dancing in shadows, guarding our hearts.
Why do we keep missing each other’s embrace,
When love’s right here, staring us in the face?

​

(Outro)
The final act is ours to decide,
Do we keep waiting, or take the dive?
Because love shouldn’t be a script we recite,
It should be real, a fire burning bright.
But here we are, still caught in the haze,
Waiting on love that’s lost in the maze.
