The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Usually, I'd be in your side seat
as the car slips into the precious night.
When you called to cancel, I smelled a lie.
But I pretended I didn't notice and hung up.
The color of my manicure after drying
only decorates the night in vain.
* A-HA-HA
I'm the actress in the mirror.
Though I should speak frankly,
hesistation whispers in my ear
'Cause I love you.
I'm the actress in the mirror.
Every time I act, my true face [1]
leaves me.
You've broken my heart.
In a bedroom lit by only a lamp,
who is it I'm looking at?
As we got used to each other, what we lost
was our imagination toward each other.
You probably just wishing that I was
as "dry" as that.
# A-HA-HA
I'm the actress in the mirror.
Although I'd rather cry,
my bravado is changing my lines
'Cause I love you.
I'm the actress in the mirror.
Realizing how much I am to blame,
I can't go back.
You've broken my heart.
* Repeat
# Repeat
Note:
[1] "Sugao" does literally mean "true face," but it also refers to the "true self."
