Been a while now that I've looked the other way
So many hours spent alone that I can't turn away
A little lie can build a high and mighty wall between us
When the time arrives and hopes begin to fade
[night's long giveway?] to friends ya missed from better days
I left the lights on once to often now it turns out I can see
This final song will have to be all
Cause there's no one listening after the curtain call
Used to think of all the things that we could share
Little house filled with our dreams and we were happy there
But when the fall arrived these curtains couln't keep the cold from me
Everytime I cried and prayed that things could change
The fans reminded me of who I'd been before you came
I take a moment to remember what it felt like to be free
This final song will have to be all
Cause there's no one listening after the curtain call
This final song will have to be all
Cause the lights go down after the curtain call
This final song will have to be all
Cause I feel how I used to feel before the things went wrong
This final song will have to be all
Cause there's no one listening after the curtain call
Sometimes I think I hear the applause
But this house is empty after the curtain call
Sometimes I think I hear the applause
But this house is empty after the curtain call
