Marina And The Diamonds - Starring Role lyrics

You're hard to hug, tough to talk to, and I never fall asleep When you're in my bed, all you give me is a heartbeat I've turned into a statue, and it makes me feel depressed 'Cause the only time you open up is when we get undressed You don't love me, big f**ing deal I'll never tell you how I feel You don't love me, not a big deal I'll never tell you how I feel It almost feels like a joke to play out the part When you are not the starring role in someone else's heart You know I'd rather walk alone than play a supporting role If I can't get the starring role Sometimes I ignore you so I feel in control 'Cause really, I adore you, and I can't leave you alone Fed up with the fantasies that cover what is wrong C'mon, baby, let's just get drunk, forget we don't get on You like my dad, you get on well I send my best, regards from hell It almost feels like a joke to play out the part When you are not the starring role in someone else's heart You know I'd rather walk alone than play a supporting role If I can't get the starring role I never sang for love, I never had a heart to mend Because before the start began, I always saw the end, yeah I wait for you to open up, to give yourself to me But nothing's ever gonna give, I'll never set you free Yeah I'll never set you free It almost feels like a joke to play out the part When you are not the starring role in someone else's heart You know I'd rather walk alone than play a supporting role If I can't get the starring role The starring role
