[Verse 1] They keep the cameras in a locked room Scripts are swapped and filed away A villain gets redeemed by lunchtime A hero’s cut before the day The names are plastered on the billboards The plots are polished bright But every hand that flips the channel Could have spliced the same scene twice [Pre-Chorus] Tell me who was writing this Tell me who revised the frame If the author hides off‑camera How can anyone know their name? [Chorus] Scene by scene, nobody knows What happened before the spotlight froze Every storyline’s a borrowed face Every missing reel leaves empty space They hold the script above our heads Use loud myths to measure what we dread Scene by scene, the stage is theirs The show is fiction running wild on steroids [Verse 2] The classroom draws a clean horizon One bright line from start to now No room for all the cut revisions No room to ask who wrote the vow The network hums behind the curtain Notes on every guarded shelf Truth becomes a ratings question When the critic writes about himself [Pre-Chorus] Tell me who was staging this Tell me who gets paid to swear If the record feeds the story Why should we mistake it for repair? [Chorus] Scene by scene, nobody knows What happened before the spotlight froze Every storyline’s a borrowed face Every missing reel leaves empty space They hold the script above our heads Use loud myths to measure what we dread Scene by scene, the stage is theirs The show is fiction running wild on steroids [Bridge] Maybe the truth is not a narrative Maybe it breaks when we look away Maybe the silence has a thousand cuts And every cut was cleared to play So bring the outtakes, bring the questions Bring the names they cropped outside We won’t trade a neat finale For another holy lie [Final Chorus] Scene by scene, nobody knows What happened underneath the roles Every storyline’s a borrowed face Every missing reel leaves empty space They hold the script above our heads Use loud myths to govern where we tread Scene by scene, the stage is theirs But doubt is where the buried footage starts [Outro] No one knows, no one knows Who wrote the line and called it true No one knows, no one knows But they still direct what we can do
