She don't smile too much

But when she does, it's just enough to make you smile back

She don't cry too much

But when she does, it's just enough to make you feel bad

She got dreams to be seen on screens by everyone

But underneath, truly, just wants to be known by anyone

She's in the fast lane, making big waves

So there's no time for her heart

Can't slow down now

She said it's easier to be an actress

Call me insane or call me an addict

But like champagne when it touches my lips

I can choose who I wanna be

Yeah, it's easier to be an actress

Fresh tear stains are found on the mattress

Hide my pain, I can never admit

That I'm sick of all this

But nuh-uh, it's easier to be an actress

She don't fall in love

'Cause that would mean gotta let 'em see behind the mask, oh

And she don't know enough

About how beautiful she is without all the magic tricks that she's hiding

And she got dreams to be seen on screens by everyone

But underneath, truly, just wants to be close to anyone

But you gotta fake it 'til you make it

So there's no time to be real

Can't slow down now

She said it's easier to be an actress

Call me insane or call me an addict

But like champagne when it touches my lips

And I can choose who I wanna be

Yeah, it's easier to be an actress

Fresh tear stains are found on the mattress

Hide my pain, I can never admit

That I'm sick of all this

But nuh-uh, it's easier to be an actress

Nuh-uh, it's easier to be an actress

It's easier
