The Show

There comes a times when you look back
a decade or two, seems like a matter of fact
But something turned
I saw the end, so close
Then it flew away
and my heart melted

You didn’t give me what I needed
but that was exactly what I needed
This is me breathing

So now, don’t you run this show anymore
because it’s over
Yeah, the audience is gone
See the jury looking weary
and the prize weighs a tonne
While the lines echo empty
as they overpower fun

There comes a times when you give up
believing words that lure you into the dark
And poems soothe (I like their groove)
but now I can smile without the music
celebrate the losing
And you had something to do with it
This is me loving you

So now I won’t run this show anymore
Because it’s over
Yeah, the audience is gone
See the jury looking weary
and the prize weighs a tonne
While the lines echo empty
as they overpower fun

And the skies collide with you
And the floor caves in for you
No, there’s no one against you
thought it feels that way sometimes
But I swear, that’s a story
that you lived in full glory
Now it’s time to say something
that you haven’t said before

I know that you know this
but now you know it a little more
And I know that you felt it
but now you feel it so much more
But like a taste
of a smoke screen
You’ve been hoping
that we’re in a show
