I just heard a little tune that made me think.


"The world's greatest actor doesn't need a stage

'Cause they're so good at their craft that nobody knows they're fake

The fools have no clue the one they knew was just a fraud

The master of pretending to be something that they're not

But as the years go by, the actor starts to change

As day by day, they live their life like all the world's a stage

Their true self-mutilated by their permanent new mask

But by the time they realized, it was too late to turn back

The world's greatest actor despises their new form

Through their practiced saccharine smiles, they got much more than they bargained for

For as they turn back to their unsuspecting crowd

They thank them for their patronage and take their final bow"

I think it's a interesting little tune that holds a lot of meaning. So let's talk about it!

For one, I think we've all been at this point. Where we just fake a smile or two. It's easy to do so, yet we don't realize the repercussions until after.

But some, go further. Faking personalities, lives, stories, to a point where they have to balance multiple versions of themself to please everybody.

Just something odd I thought I'd share.
