lyrics

Here we go again
Beginning, middle, end
And tell me where do I fit in?

The schemes? Your dreams?
The chance? At romance?

Out of sight and mind
Roles distinctly defined
As the narrative refines

Who serves who's shine
Who deserves to blind

Waiting in the wings for my cue
Supporting what the lead needs to do
So that when their story is done
They get a standing ovation

I'm just a plot point, I'm just a stunt
I'm just an inciting incident

And i stand here in my disguise
Hoping to catch the eye
Of someone in the seats
And break their suspension of disbelief

Character relies on compromise

Call me to the stage
I'll laugh and cry and rage
To illicit blinding praise
Of what you've done
My loss, you've won
by default

Look for someone in the seats
To break suspension of disbelief

Best described as an entertaining self-cleansing though acerbic revelry and bathos.
Much of which is in collaboration with producer, Pietro Sammarco. ... more
