When they bring down the curtain
In an hour and 45 minutes
we can talk about the play
and pretend that we were never in it
flashes lit up the skies
thunder and then surprise
you can close your eyes
when the earth shakes,
opens up and swallow itself
I won't be thinking about anybody else
fury and fire flies
it's too late for compromise
you can close your eyes
words turn to anger,
anger comes to blows
nobody feels the hit but everybody knows
when nothing can tantalize
it's gonna take a new set of lies
you can close your eyes
