Matinee



I've been treading onto forbidden lands they say I'm exiled either way
Claiming I belong somewhere but I don't know the path, it might lead me astray

I tried to stay silent every moment I had 
But I couldn't recognize my footprints again
Is this some weird siren, a wailing banshee, I am 
Hoping my soul doesn't fade away 

Depending on the heartache
I'll know where the road takes 
Open ended fates that keep me awake

It's the silver silhouette that 
Guides me down the wrong lane 
Harrowing mistakes I haven't yet made

But have you ever wondered
What might happen if you put out a fire too soon? 

I guess we'll never know

My borderlines are faltering and blurred lines seem so easy to read
It's always for someone else when will I write something for me?

I tried to keep quiet but you cursed the sigh that
Left my mouth and you're too stained to be proud
The wrong choices, the sad noises, black ties and many crisis
When you're alone no sound, everything is a monologue now

It's a cinematic heartbreak
Rain pouring in four ways 
Floods of acid burning the relics away

All the memories are sharpened
Knives pointing the wrong end 
Starting fights that bruised and stayed for decades 

But have you ever wondered 
What might happen if we open the flood gates too soon? 

I guess we'll never know

It's not been easy, watching my island breeze turn into some kind of city stink
With my coat over me I'm still shivering I'm not sure if it's you or the rain

They'll be another fire, a lighthearted satire 
We'll end up on the same side of the road again
The embers take us higher, we're just some outliers
But I know that it won't be the same

We'll make the same old dirty mistakes
Blame it on our old ways
Muster chaos through the peace in our starry-eyed fame

You etched your name like it's a callous
Neglected where the stage fell
Another matinee that didn't end so well

But have you ever wondered
What might happen if you leave the afterparty too soon?
