Lyrics
FINAL CURTAIN
Too many live spent in vain
In search of material gain
But not cure for emptiness pain
Hard choices to decide and decisions to choose
So easy to fall down glitter steps that confuse
Temptation bound to enfold
The going price is your soul
But no guarantees with the gold
So betray your beliefs as you search for paradise
Then lie to yourself for promises that entice
But when the final curtain falls
And you get reviewed on how you played your part
You can’t take no money—you can’t take no fame
It’s just yourself and your soul in the dark
It’s just yourself—all alone in the dark
No limitation to greed
Integrity sold for the need
Casualties left behind to bleed
Hard choices to decide and decisions to choose
So easy to fall down glitter steps that confuse
Seduction to the dark side
Dream shadows offer you a ride
Till all resistance has died
So betray your beliefs as you search for paradise
Then lie to yourself for promises that entice
