lyrics

Take a breath and count to ten
Open your eyes and maybe then
You'll have the courage to do it
Step forward, but not a moment too soon
Or the flush in your hue will give it away
Back's breaking, hands shaking
Wipe the sweat from your brow
It's now or never long as we're together
Places everybody, the curtain's about to rise

And God only know you're not ready
You're blanking on your first line
You pray to your legs to hold steady
As you run out of time

So give me a tragedy, rip my heart into pieces
Send chills down my spine as the tears fill my eyes
And show me the blood of the theatre
Give me an epic tale of lust, love, and envy with a dash of betrayal
Come one, come all and watch as it comes to life

Give me bloody, give me vengeance
You know what they want, you know what sells tickets
You know how to make them adore you
The stage is set, and not a moment too soon
All eyes are on you, so blow them away
Heart's racing, lights fading
Time to start with the show

Or stop, because you're feeling just a little big nauseous and today just really hasn't been your day, now, has it?

And nothing is just quite as moving
As old-fashioned misery
Even cold hearts need their soothing
As they pulse to the beat
