Act V, Scene IV - And So It Ends Like It Began

The smell of incense
It fills the air inside this room
The Casa Blanca love
Shirt about the floor
A casket lined with pills
And a bitter taste of absence
Wash it down
And so it ends like it began
A town in crush
Along this interstate
A war in scripture
A crack to fade and
These dead seats will remain
When bodies turned to dust
And from this monument
I will drown inside the anguish of your heart
A new dawn broke this morning
Tears were raining in this room
As the ugliest holy water
But the image was a blur
This world is like a whore
So ravish and so beautiful
So bitter cold and all alone
And if I had my way
I'd wake up on the day we met
And tremble in your arms for hours
And try to make you hear the sweetest note
But not tonight
We'd die inside each other arms
We'd rebel in our last embrace
I'd steal a breathe right from your heart
And kiss you as we die
I rest my lifeless head upon your heart... Forever
I rest my lifeless head upon your heart... Forever
I rest my lifeless hate upon your heart... Forever
Maybe I'll be sunlight after all... I'm sorry
Maybe I'll be sunlight after all... So sorry
Maybe I'll be sunlight after all... So sorry!
Maybe I'll be sunlight after all.
