The Final Curtain – Edenbridge – letras

an outcast of victorian societya crying jag since long-gone childhood daysthe dream to be an albatrosswith alabaster wingsto be flyingbefore the last bell ringsthe crushing arms of loneliness embracing stillthe sear and yellow leaf is drawing nearthis jaded heart escaping from the shadowplaywhat is the measure of a man ?and the price that we all pay[chorus]the final curtain fallsnone of the orchestra will playthe stageplay life will holdthe freakshow at the fairis there a straw in bursting dalleswill someone care ?the looking glass, deceiver of realitythe try of make-believe in who we areand the hiding in the mists of night will never endbut a graceful heart prevailsand the meaning of a friend[chorus][bridge]mesmerized, hypnotizedthe audience touched to tearspay a visit, take a lookso that the conscience clears[chorus]the final curtain fallsnone of the orchestra will playthe stageplay life will holdthe freakshow at the fairthere is a straw in bursting dalles
