opening night: short story

from dumbo by (EM)

lyrics

i ready my closing remarks
after twenty-four years of dark
east to west sweeps the dawn
i say to you, "well, so long"

the trees are still, the wind is gone
mine are the only eyes to see the sun
the dawn sweeps from east to west
a bed of blue calling for rest

i've been cut, i've bled before
i lost my mind and i've lost more
there is no key to release me
so just quit teasing me

damnation's destination
i bought a one-way ticket at the station
i've always been in limbo
they've just finally cracked the window

the performance of a lifetime
i hope i get some good reviews
i worked so long to lose it all
i tried too hard, forgot to love myself

just wait for your cue
then jump into view

quick peek behind the curtain
to make damn sure i am certain
cuz i can't take another joke
this ends the book i wrote
