Zohsky
Act Like It
[Hook: Micki Consiglio]
Words can only say so much
You got to prove this love to me so why don't
Why don't, why don't you act like it
Why don't, why don't you act like it
Tell the world I'm the one for you
And I'm not sure what you're trying to prove so why don't
Why don't, why don't you act like it
Why don't, why don't you act like it

[Verse 1: Zohsky]
Left and right I see suicide
But little do they know that it consumes my mind
Every day is to live or die
Taking on the power not to take my own life
I cannot hide this anxiety anymore
How can I lie and say that there's no pain anymore
How can I write all the heartache into words
Show me your love and I'll open the door
Wanna blow my brains out all over the curb
Gonna spread my wings wide as I fly away from earth
How do you expect me to love when I always end up hurt
I feel so alive now my voice is finally heard
Committing suicide is a commitment to one's self
How can I live for you if I can't live for myself
Give me a reason and a story to tell
How my dream came true and in love I fell
I cannot believe what has come from all of this
I see a shooting star and I make another wish
I believe in who you are and the pain you live with
So allow me to be the one to make a difference
I've seen your sadness, I've felt your torment
The prison of thoughts that make you feel unimportant
This emptiness inside with nothing else to gain
But with nothing left to lose you've got everything to gain

[Hook: Micki Consiglio]
Words can only say so much
You got to prove this love to me so why don't
Why don't, why don't you act like it
Why don't, why don't you act like it
Tell the world I'm the one for you
And I'm not sure what you're trying to prove so why don't
Why don't, why don't you act like it
Why don't, why don't you act like it

[Verse 2: Zohsky]
How can I explain that the pain will go away
That the darkness that you feel will eventually fade away
You will heal with a light brighter than a summer day
So breathe me in deep and I'll take it all away

It's okay to feel this emptiness inside
And it's okay to feel like you no longer wanna be alive
Just know that somewhere deep, deep, deep within your mind
There's a source of energy just dying to feel alive

So keep your head up, take it day by day
The lord will be your friend when He lifts the weight away
Live your life how you want, forget what they say
I'd give my life for you so you could have it your way

One of these days I'm going to sadden all your hearts
And one of these days you'll remember who you are
One of these days there will be an obituary
And one of these days there's gonna be a picture of me

So stay true to you and never steer far
Follow your path and discover who you are
Come and find me I'm beyond the stars
And I live within you if you keep me in your heart

I'm alive from beyond and trust me in this
Your life will continue but not as you wish
You will face your fears and your deepest regrets
Like Blink 182 on Eight One Six

Words can only say so much
You got to prove this love to me so why don't
Why don't, why don't you act like it
Why don't, why don't you act like it

You're like a jar of clay that's been shattered on the ground
I will piece you back together until every part of you is found
There will be cracks, and there will be holes
But that's okay, you're gonna shine through those
You're beautiful to me and I don't want you to leave
Because when it's all over, you are gonna see
I know it's hard now but I'm here to lift you up
I'm here to fill your cup, and I'm here to prove my love

[Hook: Micki Consiglio]
Words can only say so much
You got to prove this love to me so why don't
Why don't, why don't you act like it
Why don't, why don't you act like it
Tell the world I'm the one for you
And I'm not sure what you're trying to prove so why don't
Why don't, why don't you act like it
Why don't, why don't you act like it
