The stage is set up as the curtain starts to rise
The spotlight shines upon it signing his demise
The play is 'bout to start and the lead role is saved for me

A one man show is all that I will ever need
To repeat this comedy 'til it makes me bleed
The show must go on until I draw my last deep breath

One thousand nights to pass until the sun will rise
Memories of the light extinguished by the dark
A rotten mental cage that keeps its grips on me
Can't seem to hold up anymore

Afflicted and stained by the curse of the moon
Its spies will stare until there is nothing left
Buried beneath that psychotic light
Will that lay rest the flames?

I've sat here for far too long wondering where to go
The guests have risen from their seats and left the show
How long can this go on if I've lost sight of my last goal?

How can I turn these feelings into something new?
This page that's been out too long tells me what is true
My time has run out and there's nowhere left for me to go

The presence of duty, and expectations has left me weary in the corner
They say that the pen is mightier than the sword
So now I'll fight back how I can!

Enveloped in pain, this heart beats for you
It's ripped from my chest and poured onto this page
Even now that time has gone by 
How long can a candle light burn?

How can I just keep on doing this evermore?
I've grown tired of the malice that is in my head
So I'll turn that into my last!

Afflicted and stained by the curse of the moon
Its spies will stare until there is nothing left

Enveloped in pain, this heart beats for you
It's ripped from my chest and poured onto this page
Even now that time has gone by
No longer will this candlelight burn!
