about

Based on The After Hours
Season 1, Episode 34 of The Twilight Zone

lyrics

Ooh a little bit of truth
Is hanging back & stuck backstage, & keeping quiet
You shoulda known all the rules from back at the top

Ooh a tiny breath in
Just before the stage lights up to a new crowd (A little bit of truth)
Don't fuck it up.
Don't be yourself
or try too hard

Getting lost in the part
& go all in give
the people what they want

It just seems like
You're outta luck when it's starting just to feel like
Things are right but you really know you're not at home
Where you know
Where you're on your own
Where you belong
But time is up when it started just to feel like
Being out of the water is where you belong
Where you know
You're not on your own
Where you belong

Ooh a smile so big
It covers up the big bad truth you're keeping quiet
You in that role are just too good you
Just got lost
Ooh a bitter old truth
Will barrel back without concern for your new crowd (A little bit of truth)
Just give it up
& let it go.
It's gone too far

You got lost in the part
You went all in gave
the people what they want
