M. Shepard
Lyricist:Robert Iii Keeley, Timothy Charles Payne, Steven Pedulla, Geoffrey Rickley, Thomas Rule
The stage is set to rip the wings from a butterfly The stage is set, the stage is set Don't forget to breathe between the lines
If the whole world dies then it's safe, to take the stage These graves will stretch like landing strips Hospitals, all the dead museums
We won't have to be afraid anymore The crowd is growing silent With the gathering storm
When the curtain falls and you're caught on the other side Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Just trying to keep up the act We'll lie in the back of black cars with the windows rolled up Joining the procession of emptiness
If we say these words it will be too late to take them back So we hold our breathe and fold our hands Like paper planes and we're going to crash
We don't have to be alone ever again There's a riot in the theater Someone's standing in the aisle
Yelling that the murderers are everywhere And they're lining up, carving the 'M' in your side [Incomprehensible]
When the curtain falls and you're caught on the other side Just trying to keep up the act We'll lie in the back of black cars with the windows rolled up Joining the procession of emptiness The stage is set to rip the wings from a butterfly
Pull the curtain back, kill all the house lights Pin the dress with lotus flowers The silk is spinning round and around with the ceiling fan I'm disappearing into the spotlight, I'm on display With the butterfly and the scare crow
With smiles like picket fences You tie us all up and leave us outside That voice is silent now And the boat has sunk, we're on our own But we're not going to run
