child actor

Foo Fighters

I was a child actor, a face on a wall
Holding my breath as I wait for the curtain to fall
Was it good enough? Was it ever good enough?
Anything, be the person that you want

I was a child actor, born to applause
Wasting away as I chase
All the roles I ve lost
Was I good enough?
Was I ever good enough?
Is it me that they see
When the cameras are off?

Won t you turn the cameras off, turn the cameras off
Turn the cameras off, turn the cameras off
Turn the cameras off, turn the cameras off
Turn the cameras off

I was a child actor, a name on the board
Losing myself as I use someone else s words
Is it true enough?
Is it ever true enough?
Understand who I am when the credits roll

Won t you turn the cameras off, turn the cameras off
Turn the cameras off, turn the cameras off
Turn the cameras off, turn the cameras off
Turn the cameras off, turn the cameras off
Turn the cameras off, turn the cameras off
Turn the cameras off, turn the cameras off
Turn the cameras off, turn the cameras off
Turn the cameras off, turn the cameras off

Say, are you who I think you are?
Hey, aren t you who I think you are?
Where have I seen your face?
I ve seen your face before
I don t know who you think you are

Turn the cameras off, turn the cameras off
Turn the cameras off, turn the cameras off
Turn the cameras off, turn the cameras off
Turn the cameras off, turn the cameras off

Turn the cameras off, turn the cameras off
Turn the cameras off, turn the cameras off
Turn the cameras off, turn the cameras off
Turn the cameras off, turn the cameras off
Won t you turn the cameras off, turn the cameras off
Turn the cameras off, turn the cameras off
Turn the cameras off, turn the cameras off
Turn the cameras off

I was a child actor
