Actor Lyrics

Am I getting better?
Am I just getting better at acting?
I think you've got me figured out,
With your tongue inside my mouth.
I'm an asshole.

Am I getting better?
Am I just getting better at drinking?
And kissing every girl I meet,
In hopes to build my self esteem.
I'm a taker.

It's not the right time.
It's not a good idea.
Well, maybe I'm pretty biased.
But, that doesn't seem fair to me.

But, I lust after her,
And she's in love with me.
Well, this is fucking out of control,
Man seriously.
Do you really think you'll be better off alone?
Yeah, you're the one to talk,
Never knowing what you want.
And it just takes a toll on my heart, girl. Honestly.
For just this once, could you be straight up with me?

And if you knew me half as well as you think you do.
I wouldn't waste all my time convincing you:
"I'm not who you think I am."
I probably don't give a damn about your band, man.
I hope you understand,
That I'm rotten to the core.
A selfish attention whore.
Don't expect optimism,

I left it at the door.

And there's a thousand nights like tonight.
You look me in the eyes,
It eats away at me.

I'm running out of air to breathe.
And you're pretty good for me,
I'm all that you want and need.
But, I won't kiss you unless someone else is ignoring me.
It's fucked up.
