Cub Country - After The Song's Been Sung lyrics

After the song's been sung The lines on your face become The only real path you can trace Past where you've been and who you belong to Even in the arms of someone new who loves you You've stood on stages And charmed all the faces And had all the fun you could stand Sometimes they want you Sometimes they need you Sometimes you are so gone they look right through you Oh don't leave unless they carry you Down from that pedestal on high Though you've found a new home You'll still feel alone Just don't forget your goodbyes You've been living through the words they offer you How does it feel to die Now the pages are turned and the memories are burned The song only lives for one night Now you are wrapped up in the ribbon of your life Heated with fever and driven just to write Will you just bleed out that ribbon to the sky? Will the angels translate your cries? Please don't take us back there To places we can't stand The mood's not right in these towns at night What is this curse on our heads? What is this curse on our heads?
