Verse 1
Perfect family framed in a lens,
Laughing loud while the world pretends.
Dinner’s set with the lights just right,
Every smile rehearsed each night.
Suburban dreams on a silver plate,
Sell us joy while they feed us hate.
Every heartbreak fades on cue,
Roll the credits, start anew.
Chorus
We’re living the scripted life,
Plastic hearts under TV lights.
Laugh tracks drown what we can’t say,
We fade to black, then fake okay.
Verse 2
The fathers fail with a comic grin,
The mothers sigh and they fit right in.
Every flaw’s a market scheme,
Reality’s just a packaged dream.
Kids grow up in a looped cliché,
New season starts, they act the same way.
The pain’s too real, but they paint it bright,
And sell us hope through the sleepless night.
Chorus
We’re living the scripted life,
Plastic hearts under TV lights.
Laugh tracks drown what we can’t say,
We fade to black, then fake okay.
Bridge
Every lie’s been filmed before,
Every truth cut out for score.
Our souls replaced with product lines,
And stories sold in neon signs.
We chase the glow, forget our scars,
Trade who we are for who they are.
It’s all a play with no real end,
We just pretend and then pretend.
Chorus
We’re living the scripted life,
Plastic hearts under TV lights.
Laugh tracks drown what we can’t say,
We fade to black, then fake okay.
Outro
Tear down the stage, unplug the frame,
Let the truth step out with no shame.
No more lines, no more disguise,
No more "perfect" family lies.
Turn off the show, let silence speak,
Let the broken be unique.
We were never meant to bow and smile,
We’ve been real this whole damn while.
