lirik lagu looking back – ben greaves

there’s no point
looking back
after the final bow
before the fade to black
as the curtain falls
the audience
has seen it all before
they recognise your face
but they don’t know your name
there’s always someone different
yet still somehow the same
it doesn’t matter to them
they’re here for the show
so don’t pretend
that just because you got the lead
it doesn’t make you a star
if n-body came
because they know who you are
they saw the poster
and the flashing lights
with the promise of another way
to kill a night

your life’s a one man show
and the world is your stage
make the most of what you’ve got
whilst you can still act your age
why not wait until you’re older
you can drink champagne
once a week instead of whiskey
every single day
now you’re two parts medicine
and one regret
the rest has been dead for years
you still pretend
that you never gave a sh-t
but you can barely see
through your tears

you’ve got to open your mouth
you’ve got to make yourself heard
you’ve got to stop reading somebody else’s words
you’ve got to stand your ground
you’ve got to make a sound
so everyone can hear you’ve got to make it loud

before you fade away
they’d just as soon replace you
with another face
that’s the same

now you’ve got yourself a different role
you can choose what you wanna wear
change your style, change your voice
and the colour of your hair
‘cos you don’t want the world to realise
that you ever really cared
when the lights are on, you’re the only one
who knew you were scared

you never stopped to argue
you just went along
and followed every line
until you reach the song
so whilst distracted you can act
as if you didn’t get it wrong
as you stand and hope that it’s not long
until the night is done
