Mime in War Lyrics – Marvin Valentin
Singer: Marvin Valentin
Title: Mime in War
Put your makeup on
Be the mime they’ve always wanted
Actors in a show
Dramatization and fallacies
In performance mode
Blending in with all the faces
Putting on a show
Fulfilling all of their fantasies
Cheering on, curtain call
Rewards in the form of praise
Memorize every line
Or you will be left backstage
So just stick to the script
Play the role that they’re expecting
But behind the scenes
This is not who I want to be
Life is a war of theatre
The audience applause is a victory to you
Staying in character
But underneath the mask
You don’t know who I am
Only who you think I am
Only who you think I am
“Be a mime don’t say a word”
Staying silent in this war
Is conforming to society
Raise your voice until it’s heard
I am one of a kind
I’ll never let you rewrite me
Oh-wee-oh, Oh-wee-oh
Can’t fit me in a mold
You can’t turn me into a clone (so)
Oh-wee-oh, Oh-wee-oh
I’d rather be a mime
With a voice that I can call my own
Be nothing special
Be nothing new
Be nothing unique
You could be nothing at all
Just camouflage in the scenery
Locked inside of an invisible box of lies
A mime in a war zone
Still playing the part in full disguise
In the heavy spotlight
That feels like a target on my back
Close the final curtain
But I’m still under attack
In the limelight
I can’t recognize my own reflection
Still wearing a facade
To keep the crowd’s attention
Life is a war of theatre
The audience applause is a victory to you
Staying in character
But underneath the mask
You don’t know who I am
Only who you think I am
Even then it’s all a sham (so)
“Shy away and be the same”
Or stand out like a clown in a colorless society
I’ll take my place at center stage
I am one of a kind
I’ll never let you re-cast me
Oh-wee-oh, Oh-wee-oh
Can’t fit me in a mold
You can’t turn me into a clone (so)
Oh-wee-oh, Oh-wee-oh
I’m not marching on my own
I won’t fight this war alone
Dressed up head to toe
In clown makeup
We’re a harmonizing army
Covered in rainbow war paint
Let’s give them a show
They won’t forget
What they thought to be a voiceless mime
An act they’ve seen a thousand times
Rebels against the scripted lines
And breaks the box they’re trapped inside
Charge upstage and take your aim
We’ll stand out like a clown
In a colorless society
Onward now and take a bow
We’re taking off our masks
And we’ll never let you change us
Oh-wee-oh, Oh-wee-oh
Can’t fit me in a mold
You can’t turn me into a clone (so)
Oh-wee-oh, Oh-wee-oh
I’m putting on a show
I will make this stage my own
Oh-wee-oh, Oh-wee-oh
Can’t fit me in a mold
You can’t turn me into a clone (so)
Oh-wee-oh, Oh-wee-oh
The crowd will all rejoice
For a mime that finally has a voice
