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 And 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 (Just trying to keep up the act) We'll lie in the back of black cars With the windows rolled up Joining the precession of emptiness
If we say these words It will be too late to take them back So we hold our breath and fold our hands Like paper planes (and we're going to crash) We don't have to be alone (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 Stand alone.

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 scarecrow 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 runTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
