Marina and the Diamonds Starring Role Lyrics

j7
Verse 1:
You're hard to hug
Tough to talk to
And I never fall asleep
When you're in my bed
All you give me is a heartbeat
I've turned into a statue
And it makes me feel depressed
'Cause the only time you open up
Is when we get undressed
Pre-Chorus:
You don't love me
Big fucking deal
I'll never tell you how I feel
You don't love me
Not a big deal
I'll never tell you how I feel
Chorus:
It almost feels like a joke
To play out the part
When you are not the starring role
In someone else's heart
You know I'd rather walk alone
Than play a supporting role
If I can't get the starring role
Fill:

Verse 2:
Sometimes I ignore you
So I feel in control
'Cause really, I adore you
And I can't leave you alone
Fed up with the fantasies
They cover what is wrong
Come on, baby
Let's just get drunk
Forget we don't get on
Pre-Chorus:
You like my dad
You get on well
I send my best regards from hell
Chorus:
It almost feels like a joke
To play out the part
When you are not the starring role
In someone else's heart
You know I'd rather walk alone
Than play a supporting role
If I can't get the starring role
Bridge:

I never sent for love
I never had a heart to mend
Because before the start began
I always saw the end
Yeah, i wait for you to open up
To give yourself to me
But nothing's ever gonna give
I'll never set you free
Yeah i'll never set you free
Chorus:
It almost feels like a joke
To play out the part
When you are not the starring role
In someone else's heart
You know I'd rather walk alone
Than play a supporting role
If I can't get the starring role
Fill:
