This kind of all consuming pain
I hope you'll never know
It mutes the sound from all around
and makes your moon no longer glow
First it takes a person
Maybe even two
You'll drive yourself mad for answers
He won't even give you a clue
Act two begins, you've assumed your role
He chose you as the lead
Familiar things have now turned foreign
You're now a different breed
The lights have flickered and now they are dimmed
It's time to take your place
It's hard to play the starring role
When you don't recognize your face
The show's begun and it's no fun
Will there be an intermission?
You're taxed and tired and need relief
You're dying by your own admission
Whisked away from the lights
You've come to a screeching halt
It's tentacles and tendrils pulled your further down
It's just your mind at fault
A skewed sense of reality
Nothing else worth living for
I'll just lay down on piles of tulle
I'm going to loose this war
