The stage is set to rip the wings from a
butterfly

(The stage is set!)

The stage is set!, don't forget to breathe
between the lines



If the whole world dies it's safe to take the
stage

And these cliffs will stretch like landing
strips

Hospitals are dead in the fields

We won't have to be afraid anymore

The crowd is growing silent with the gathering
sort



If the curtain falls and you're caught on the
other side

Just trying to keep up the act

We lie in the back of black cars with the windows
rolled down

Joining a procession of emptiness



If we say these words, it will be too late to
take them back

So we hold our breath and fold our hands 

Like paper planes (We're going to crash!)

We don't have to be alone ever again

There's a riot in the theatre

Someones standing in the aisles

(Killers and Murderers!)

Are everywhere and they're lining up

(Carving the air in a sigh!)

Standing alone (this time!)



When the curtain falls and you're caught on the
other side

Just trying to keep up the act

We lie in the back of black cars with the windows
rolled down

Just joining a procession of emptiness



The stage is set to rip the wings from a
butterfly..



Pull the curtain back, kill all the house
lights

Pin the dress with lotus flowers

The silk is spinning round and round with the
ceiling fan

I'm disapearing into the spotlight

I'm on display, the butterfly and the
scarecrow



With smiles like picket fences

We try to throw up and leave this outside

This voice is silent now

The boat has sunk, we are on our own

But we're not-going-to-win!
