[Verse 1]
Share a pint of beer on the weekends
I've been cavalier for no reason
Close enough to hear what I'm feeling now
Why did you just take off your glasses?
Did you see a new point of access?
Baby how's the view? I'm no actress now
[Pre-Chorus]
Did you go (Did you go?)
Portobello Road
To get here?
It's like you know (Like you know)
How far I'm exposed
Forever
[Chorus]
I'm running outta pages with new lines
I'm falling off the stage to play me in real life
Come get a single take without the lights
Cause I'm running outta places, places to hidе
From you (You, from you)
Places to hide from you (You, from you)
No actress tonight (You, from you)
Placеs to hide from you (You, from you)
No actress tonight
[Verse 2]
It's a different show, it's a spin off
Born to the play role, watch me improv
I'ma lose control, wanna get lost now
[Pre-Chorus]
Did you go (Did you go?)
Portobello Road
To get here?
It's like you know (Like you know)
How far I'm exposed
Forever
[Chorus]
I'm running outta pages with new lines
I'm falling off the stage to play me in real life
Come get a single take without the lights
'Cause I'm running outta places, places to hide
From you (You, from you)
Places to hide from you (You, from you)
No actress tonight (You, from you)
Places to hide from you (You, from you)
No actress tonight
[Outro]
You, you
You, you
Ah, ah-ah, ah-ah
Ah, ah-ah, ah-ah
Ah, ah-ah, ah-ah

‘Actress’ is a song I made with producer Josh Grant and writer Trey Campbell. It came about by wanting to make a song that sounded like we’d sampled an old school record (but had actually made the sample loop ourselves). The lyrics were inspired by the feeling of pretending to be something you’re no...
