Behind the scenes

My hands are sweaty

My legs are shaking

My breath is shallow

But the show must go on.

Behind the scenes

I can’t see

I can’t feel

I can’t speak

But the show must go on.

Behind the scenes

My heart is shattered

My soul is crushed

My mind is numb

But the show must go on.

On the stage

My eyes are wild

My voice is fierce

I will not be controlled any longer.

I will not take part in this show.
