Curtain - Eve 6

Burning like an open nerve

I’m running like a dog

On linoleum

I don’t know how come

But the effect of you on me is too much

Bro it’s like you speak in code

I’m only 3 months sober

Swear I’m so close

To buying a bottle of SoCo

A pack of smokes and saying fuck it all

'Cause I tried to forgive you

For the shit you put me through

But it’s just the hardest thing to do

So I guess it’s goodbye brother

Goodbye rock and roll

Guess it’s goodbye to the only life I know

It’s a shame you couldn’t just say you were hurting

I will see you on the other side of the curtain

Turning like a broken wheel

My own Achilles heel

Tell me how does it feel

To have a normal day

Despite all my rage

I’m just a rat in a cage

Thoughts, they come and crowd my mind

And they’re never kind

It happens all the time, it happens all the time

I’m running out of time, I’m running out of time

'Cause I tried to forgive you

For the shit you put me through

But it’s just the hardest thing to do

So I guess it’s goodbye brother

Goodbye rock and roll

Guess it’s goodbye to the only life I know

It’s a shame you couldn’t just say you were hurting

I will see you on the other side of the curtain

And now the spotlight shines upon you all alone

Cuts a circle 'round your velvet throne

You take in the applause and give a shallow bow

I’m watching in the rafters now

And you’re striking that pose as they’re throwing the roses

Lifting up your arms like the statue of Moses

One door opens another one closes

I’m watching in the rafters now

So I guess it’s goodbye brother

Goodbye rock and roll

Guess it’s goodbye to the only life I know

Yeah, it’s a shame you couldn’t just say you were hurting

I will see you on the other side of the curtain

Goodbye brother

Goodbye rock and roll

Goodbye to the only life I know

Yeah, it’s a shame you couldn’t just say you were hurting

Guess I’ll see you on the other side of the curtain
