This Shows Over Lyrics — Tom Wehrle

This Shows Over



Taken back, surprised
There's no compromise that there's an end
To every word & rhyme
One day there'll be no more to hide behind

So take a seat, take your bow
There's no use running now

When this show's over
This show's over
This show's over soon

We get one take in life
Line by line with little time
Some get themes & plots
When story boards was all you got
I hear you say “if time were only on our side”
I know I'd lay my head & cry
Cause I'd forget why we were here at all in life

Every perfect line means nothing when you die

When this show's over
This show's over
This show's over fast

No more ticket stubs to keep
No more credit lines to read
When this show's over

No more theatre darkened halls
No more curtains left to fall
When this show's over
