As The Curtains Dim

I slipped on a little white lie
When I said those words
I'm alright
So please just a kiss goodnight

Little white lie
Those words
I'm alright
Just a kiss goodnight
Things will be just fine

Close your eyes
As I spill
These dying limps
Sway your bodies
As I turn my back
'Cos I'm scared I'll cringe
At this ghost I am

Close your eyes
Sway your bodies
As I turn my back
'Cos I'm scared I'll cringe
At this ghost I am

Never again have to see
Those shining lights

Things have been messed again
I won't be the one to deal with them
With a passing grin
You nod your head as the poet's dead

I don't want
To ever wake again
