I’m well aware of this. I’ve been this way for as long as I can remember.
Growing up I had a hard time connecting with anyone. understanding others, especially regarding anything emotional.
I’ve been told I’m cold, callous, and cruel.
“How can you not see how your actions hurt others?”
How could I explain too anyone that I lack whatever they have in that regard.
But I’m awfully clever. I learned how too pretend too have what they had inside that I didn’t. I learned how to be the perfectly cheery, hopeful, nice person I am today.
Is it any wonder I got into acting as a job? It’s what I do every hour of every day, might as well get payed for it.
People say that Joey Drew and I are a lot alike. We aren’t.
Joey has what i lack inside. I’ve heard people call him heartless, but no, he has one.
If there’s anyone in the halls of this studio that’s heartless it’s me.
Not that I would ever let them know. The heartless don’t get anywhere.
Alice used too be popular, started to outshine that little devil Joey goes on and on about.
She lost all of it when I started voicing her.
“You don’t put any heart into your performance.” The music director once told me.
How do I explain too him that I don’t have a heart.
Thomas Conner loves me. I don’t know if I can feel the same, if that’s something I’m even capable of.
But I think he’s fun, and determined, and someone who could use a good distraction.
I’m happy to play that part.
I’ve learned all the steps in the dance, all the words too the song.
But I can never hear the beating music everyone else can hear.
