A tale of sorrow, of broken hearts and regret
And how tomorrow, I'll write off my Juliet
Without circumstance, I sweared I'd never leave you
But we live a veiled romance
All the misperception
How heavy the lies weigh
And I've gotten back in the way
I should've left things as they are
Now I step aside
As you take the stage
And the band plays on
And the show must go on as I've played my final song
We've shared the spotlight together for too long
As I exit to the right, the lines you will recite
Strike the chord and close the curtain one last time
These words have cast a brand new light
Over every moment
This tragedy at hand
There is no excuse
No rest for the wicked
I'd take it back
Everything to stay here
But I know my time has passed
All my ghosts will haunt me
Serenity won't last
And I've gotten back in the way
I should've left things as they are
Now I step aside
As you take the stage
And the band plays on
And the show must go on as I've played my final song
We've shared the spotlight together for too long
As I exit to the right, the lines you will recite
Strike the chord and close the curtain one last time
A hush falls on the crowd
The lights are dimming down
A few last words before, I take my final bow
And I've swallowed all my pride
I've known it all this time
Was bound to lose it all
It's hard to say goodbye
Lost all the years I tried
My fate, my downfall
Could ask for reasons why
No answers will I find
A silence to befall
My well it has run dry
No more words that I can write
This is goodbye
