The Curtain Call - Whence He Came

Looks that have you lost
Fractured shards
They mirror
A shattered narrative
As you live for the curtain call
Your eye is ever on the crowd
This is a stage
A world in which you're practicing your part
And the faces you adhere to are for show
This is a page
On which you're plotting your parade
And you're marked with milestones for us to swallow
Now this constant surveying smiles
Is the fire you fan
Licking at your wounds
And your longing to perform
Is what consumes all of you
It's consuming all of you
Blinding heights
Bright lights lead you there
Poised for flight
Or falling
So you're spent on all that fade
