I watched an actor pretend to die tonight.
I don't think he knew what it meant.
As he lay on the ground, dead(alive),
I could tell by his face that he knew
That when it came time for bows
People would applaud for him the most
Because, after all, he came back from the dead.
His face (dead(alive)) was expectant.
A dead face is not expectant
A dead face is not uplifted
A dead face is dead
There are no curtain calls
Smoke 'em while you got 'em
