The Thespian

Lyrics

[Intro: Shawn Milke & Dennis Lee] (Baby) Why are you doing this to me? (Sweetheart) Are those your eyes staring straight back at me? (Angel) I see you smile everywhere (Darling) Stop [Verse 1: Shawn Milke] Night falls and I'm running in circles, woah-woah-oh (Woah-oh) I'm being chased by my imagination, woah-woah-oh (Woah-oh) [Pre-Chorus: Shawn Milke & Dennis Lee] Tell me I'm forgiven, say you'll always be mine Say that everything is over, tell me I'm fine No one deserves to live like this Tell me I'm forgiven, say you'll always be mine Say that everything is over, tell me I'm fine No one deserves to live like this [Chorus: Shawn Milke] I touch your lips and stare in your eyes You smile, and it makes me fly You are the reason my heart beats Tonight, it's just you and me [Verse 2: Dennis Lee] Night as dark as my thought sets the scene for my return Lightning nips at my heels as I race home Wearily, I stagger towards the song of her pale voice Demons jeer my attempt to be free [Pre-Chorus: Shawn Milke & Dennis Lee] Tell me I'm forgiven, say you'll always be mine Say that everything is over, tell me I'm fine No one deserves to live like this Tell me I'm forgiven, say you'll always be mine Say that everything is over, tell me I'm fine No one deserves to live like this [Chorus: Shawn Milke] I touch your lips and stare in your eyes You smile, and it makes me fly You are the reason my heart beats Tonight, it's just you and me [Guitar Solo] [Bridge: Shawn Milke & Dennis Lee] Windows cast her gentle reflection (—flection) Her somber silhouette dances for me (It's time) [Breakdown: Dennis Lee] Look at you, you miserable fool Get off your knees, and your prayers fall upon deaf ears God's turned His back on you, Heaven's gates are shut And now you're knocking on the Devil's door I've been expecting you for some time, sir Allow me to introduce myself I'm the one who pulls on all of the strings, son You're lucky I don't kill you where you stand [Outro: Dennis Lee & Shawn Milke] This can't be real Tonight, I raise my glass There's nothing left For I know it's time to move on All hope has failed My patience will not last I've lost my soul Tomorrow, I will be gone
