Play Without A Stage

by No Need For A Name   Jan 18, 2007


Here we are
Asleep at the switch again
Life in the fast lanes
Coming to an end
And we are
Falling on our knees again
This isn't part
of our plan
And here we are
Burning down forests again
Make sure we breathe in
We breathe in

(Chorus)
So collapse into a house of mirrors
And sing like you've got no fears
Experiment with punishment
Experiment with everything
It's all a joke to you

And here we go
Painting a picture this time
With oil based paints
So it will ignite
And here we go
Scaling a mountain this time
We know we'll fail
But we still try to climb
And here we go
Making the rules this time
Deciding what is wrong or right
What is wrong or right

(Chorus)
So collapse into a house of mirrors
And sing like you've got no fears
Experiment with punishment
Experiment with everything
It's all a joke to you
So step back and analyze this
And rethink none of your wishes
Demonstrate what you create
Demonstrate with everything
It's all a joke to you

Your dialog deserves no applause
It's rehearsed that makes it worse
It's just a play without a stage
An apology that's half empty

(Chorus)
So collapse into a house of mirrors
And sing like you've got no fears
Experiment with punishment
Experiment with everything
It's all a joke to you
So step back and analyze this
And rethink none of your wishes
Demonstrate what you create
Demonstrate with everything
It's all a joke to you
