A mime or mime artist (from Greek μῖμος, mimos, "imitator, actor") is someone who uses mime as a theatrical medium or as a performance art, involving miming, or the acting out a story through body motions, without use of speech. In earlier times, in English, such a performer would typically be referred to as a mummer. Miming is to be distinguished from silent comedy, in which the artist is a seamless character in a film or sketch.
The performance of mime originates at its earliest in Ancient Greece; the name is taken from a single masked dancer called Pantomimus, although performances were not necessarily silent. In Medieval Europe, early forms of mime such as mummer plays and later dumbshows evolved. In early nineteenth century Paris, Jean-Gaspard Deburau solidified the many attributes that we have come to know in modern times—the silent figure in whiteface.
Jacques Copeau, strongly influenced by Commedia dell'arte and Japanese Noh theatre, used masks in the training of his actors. Étienne Decroux, a pupil of his, was highly influenced by this and started exploring and developing the possibilities of mime and developed corporeal mime into a highly sculptural form, taking it outside of the realms of naturalism. Jacques Lecoq contributed significantly to the development of mime and physical theatre with his training methods.

greet you with open arms all you do is lie to me
your transparent words got me thinkin what i want to be
it's all figured out now you can't have my sympathy
get it all away from me
when i look i see right through you
hesitate cause i don't respect you
fuck you you'll never see into me
you can count on me to be the enemy
the breath of my soul breathes out of control
i grasp for the truth so i gotta let go
listen to your words but it doesn't make any sense
heard what you said so i still keep my defense
i will never have respect for you
i will never do the things you do
i will never be the same as you
take it all away from me
my mind keeps on haunting me
go away your living on sympathy
isolate yourself from reality
you can count on me to be the enemy
i'm not feeling like i should feel
there's something fucking wrong with me
coming to find you to take you alone
coming to see if you handle your own
you would not help when i took your side
you will not leave here with me far behind
time ends where you begin
sins within wear you thin
fear in my eyes i never knew why
you never know when i could die
see me now that could be it
it won't always be the same old shit
what if i go and what if i stay
you gotta take life and live it everyday
things may come and things may go
you never can tell you never will know
why are you here why am i here
what's the point it seems so clear
you gotta hold on you gotta let go
open up your mind and let it all grow
see me now then i disappear
what's gone wrong i have no fear
follow me out or follow me in
make your choice now take your sin
can you see what you do to me
will you get the fuck away from me
can you see why i feel this way
will you get the fuck away from me
it's all on you never on me
you don't see what i see
how can you live your life so fake
i watch you drown in your mistakes
i reach for you but turn away
offer myself and what do you say
you speak the truth but it's all lies
now everyone ignores your cries
can you see what you do to me
will you get the fuck away from me
can you
time ends where you begin
sins within wear you thin
the breath of my soul breathes out of control
i grasp for the truth so i gotta let go
listen to your words but it doesn't make any sense
heard what you said so i still keep my defense
i will never have respect for you
i will never do the things you do
i will never be the same as you
take it all away from me
i'm not feeling like i should feel
there's something fucking wrong with me
coming to find you to take you alone
coming to see if you handle your own
you would not help when i took your side
