lyrics

Stop hovering
The news is set, and remains unchanged, we've all no more to say
The thing with real people thrown in soap opera plots
Is that they get stuck in their roles and they can't get out again
How are we supposed to act?
When the weather outside is so sunny and bright but the script calls out for rain
Put out a roll call to casting agents far and wide
We require a player to melt the cold hearts of the opening night

And you shine in the role the most bitter of critics stand up to applaud We're beside you to say that you've made your point perfectly well
As you holler and yell out the awkward half rhymes of the amateur's verse We're beside you to make this a home

Hold me closer to your power source I'll drain your charge
Pull out each and every power plug charging your heart

Still the star of the show in a hospital bed with your jewellery on
And inside on that stage, I hope you're not pirouetting alone
But the curtains on even the greatest of plays must eventually close
We're beside you to make this a home
