We all sit through the play life
Watching day by day
Will the play ever change
Will I ever have a say

People go on this stage
To act as a different person
But each character they play
Is not who signed the page

Each person has put their signature
Onto a slip of white
Saying they will true to themselves
But then acting, they won't fight

They all chose to act in this play
To be who they are not
They all chose to be a person
To be who life has taught

Life has taught all these people
To act as what they are not
To star in a play, where they are fake
No one has ever fought

They commit themselves to a fake them
They then torture others to watch
We are all forced to sit in the audience
And watch life's false blotch

People lie to who they truly are
For they like the character too much
They tell you statues, make you promises
But then never carry out such

We all need to find some one
Who hasn't given into the play
We all need fo find someone
Who sits with us through the day

A person who will join you
And sit in the audience
A person whose character matches
The person they truly are

But be aware for you may just star
In the play you read described
And so i hope that you can fight
To be one with yourself inside
Its sad when you think about it, to see and watch all the plays around us.
