Exit The Stage





January 6th, 2008

Tired me, what did I say...when I was drifting
Angry thoughts that ate my brain
Thoughts that left me hindering
My foolish steps and fearlessness
I can't write my heart, just give sawed off hours
Of lost words to a page
They roam to the end and leave me here
                                                               - Exit the stage

Tired me, what did I do...when I was sifting
Through my dirty angels
To walk out of the darkness
I traded one demon for three
I can't hear my head, just pound the sounds
Of wisdom on a page
They run to the edge and leave me here
                                                               - Exit the stage

      No choice, but to exit the stage
      You'll see me on another
      When the words finally come out right
       I can't breathe answers anymore

       Can't help but to exit the stage
       The curtain just won't fall
       Leaving me crippled by silence
       A burning audience of expectations

Heavy me, what did I breathe...when I was crying
That brought fire to my lungs
And flew out just like dying
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
I can't feel my tongue, just lick the wounds
From life inside this cage
Hostility eats through the spotlight
                                                                  - Exit the stage

Heavy me, what did I lose...when I was buying
Into knives and mirrored stains
So easy to keep trying
To hide the girl inside the pain
I can't see the worth, just keep the faith
Of life outside the cage
The microphone will hold for now
                                                                    - Exit the stage


       No choice but to exit the stage 
       You'll hear me on another 
       When the words finally come out straight 
        I can't breathe at all out here

        I've got to leave this stage
        The curtain just won't fall
        It leaves me crippled by silence 
        A burning audience of regrets



Faces moving on to other acts and scenes, I was never so afraid.
Words and thoughts and songs fall down, onto a deaf ground.
This stage won't stand when ages pass.
I've got the find a thing that lasts.
        
                                                                        - I Exit the stage
