A mask put on his face It's dark all over the place The old theatre where opera shows where held A black shadow that walks Remembering, lost in thought Because here there are memories he'll never remove Since he went away Nothing has changed It's strange but it remained the same Much time has pa**ed A whirlwind of emotions Into the old guardian's heart But this night is the last Although it seemed immortal Who decided? Soon you'll be cancelled Lots of people pa**ing by The tickets were torn off So the same routine survived But when the show began
You could see the old man Moved, hidden in the dark His great amazement led him To try costumes and wigs And to impersonate figures from his fantasy Lights lit on the stage And as only public Silent walls, unspoken complicity But this night is the last Although it seemed immortal Who decided? This place So empty Fills me with infinite sadness This place once full of life Is now just full of dust Abandoned to its fate It is time to say goodbye and reach the last act Pull the curtain on us old friend Our grand finale will amaze
