Set the stage for disaster Curtain call for the actor I don't know maybe our players a pro The cracks in the makeup start the show You never thought we could see what happened on the other side No tears, even though I see the truth Dark years, fill the sky and shadow you We all pretend to be what it is we think they see And everytime I feel like I'm alive again All the lies flash out before my eyes again Let me out 'cause I'm not doing anybody any good Comedy and confusion Tragedy and illusion We could never stand being together when the lights went down You never thought we could see what happened on the other side No tears, even though I see the truth Dark years, fill the sky and shadow you We all pretend to be what is we think they see And everytime I feel like I'm alive again All the lies flash before my eyes again Practice to deceive Tangled webs we weave But don't believe that your misunderstood You did all you could To make sure you weren't doing anybody any good No tears, even though I see the truth Dark years, fill the sky and shadow you We all pretend to be what it is we think they see And everytime I feel like I'm alive again All the lies are telling me that this is the end So take the stage and the spotlight Take a bow and say goodnight Make your final exit Now the place where you once stood Isn't doing anybody any good
