Acting Out Lyrics
Up above the surface, I was just a perfect child
But underneath it all, I was craving to be wild
Don’t you judge by the cover, it’s so far from what you see
I’m losing all my patience waiting on you to believe
I’m suffocating, I can’t breathe
Let me out this cage, I’m not gonna hold back
Gonna break these chains, I’m taking control now
Gonna giva you something to talk about
It’s another side of me
I’m acting out
Set me free, I’m ready to show you
This is what I need, it’s time to get dirty
Imma show you what I’m talking about
It’s another side of me
I’m acting out
Welcome to a new beginning, it’s time to start the show
No I don’t think it matters if it’s real or just a role
Once you get a taste of it, you’ll be begging me for more
I’ll giva you something to remember once I hit the floor
I’m letting go of what you know
Let me out this cage, I’m not gonna hold back
Gonna break these chains, I’m taking control now
Gonna give you something to talk about
It’s another side of me
I’m acting out
Set me free, I’m ready to show you
This is what I need, it’s time to get dirty
Imma show you what I’m talking about
It’s another side of me
I’m acting out
I’ve been waiting just to drive you crazy
Now it’s my time and yes it feels amazing
There’s nothing left of what you’ve seen before
Life’s too short just to do what you’re told
Just to do what you’re told, Just to do what you’re told
Do what you’re told
Just to do what you’re told
Do what, do what you’re told
Let me out this cage, I’m not gonna hold back
Gonna break these chains, I’m taking control now
Gonna give you something to talk about
It’s another side of me
I’m acting out
Set me free, I’m ready to show you
This is what I need, it’s time to get dirty
Imma show you what I’m talking about
It’s another side of me
I’m acting out
Life’s too short just to do what you’re told, I’m acting out
Life’s too short just to do what you’re told, I’m acting out
Life’s too short just to do what you’re told, I’m acting out
Yeah yeah, I’m acting out
But underneath it all, I was craving to be wild
Don’t you judge by the cover, it’s so far from what you see
I’m losing all my patience waiting on you to believe
Gonna break these chains, I’m taking control now
Gonna giva you something to talk about
It’s another side of me
I’m acting out
This is what I need, it’s time to get dirty
Imma show you what I’m talking about
It’s another side of me
I’m acting out
No I don’t think it matters if it’s real or just a role
Once you get a taste of it, you’ll be begging me for more
I’ll giva you something to remember once I hit the floor
Gonna break these chains, I’m taking control now
Gonna give you something to talk about
It’s another side of me
I’m acting out
This is what I need, it’s time to get dirty
Imma show you what I’m talking about
It’s another side of me
I’m acting out
Now it’s my time and yes it feels amazing
There’s nothing left of what you’ve seen before
Life’s too short just to do what you’re told
Do what you’re told
Just to do what you’re told
Do what, do what you’re told
Gonna break these chains, I’m taking control now
Gonna give you something to talk about
It’s another side of me
I’m acting out
This is what I need, it’s time to get dirty
Imma show you what I’m talking about
It’s another side of me
I’m acting out
Life’s too short just to do what you’re told, I’m acting out
Life’s too short just to do what you’re told, I’m acting out
Yeah yeah, I’m acting out

I effing LOVE this song so much. It almost feels like it's about me. (: Ashley Tisdale just keeps getting better and better.
what i dont get is, why do people say "oh this song TOTALLY realtes to me" just cuz they like the singer?
if u have a split personality this song would be 4 u. but only i have that. everyone @ the hospital said so.
f u comment above me.
like this song is something i can relate to. even tho im not famous!
but like i know how it feels to be chained down and want to break out.
I LOVE THIS SONG SO MUCH!
