On stage, where nerves and fears ignite the flame
Heart pounds, hands tremble in the glaring light
In the wings, awaits the daunting game

The audience, a sea, each face a frame
Their silence roars, a deafening fright
On stage, where nerves and fears ignite the flame

Behind the curtain, whispers hoarsely claim
A trembling soul, hidden from sight
In the wings, awaits the daunting game

Lines rehearsed, yet they sound so lame
Mind races, lost in the endless night
On stage, where nerves and fears ignite the flame

The spotlight blinds, no one's to blame
Sweat beads, a battle to fight
In the wings, awaits the daunting game

But as the curtains rise, there's no shame
For courage blooms in the face of fright
On stage, where nerves and fears ignite the flame
In the wings, awaits the daunting game
