Purgatory

The curtains rise
You've learnt your lines
A script of lies
Time to play the part
Just smile
Pretend a while
Quietly break apart

The one man show
Where no one knows
The undertow
Pulling down the star
You'll drown

Without a sound
Without astound
Without a hope

You're hiding in the light
Living in the dark
The spotlight shines
But Direct light
Doesn't show the marks
You're hiding in the light, broken
We only see a shadow
We only see a silhouette

You cant be safe
In Plato's cave
A casual gaze
Doesn't show the truth
Outlines
Cant define
A necktie from a noose

The spotlights sheen
A piercing beam
Leaves unseen
The hidden scars
You'll drown

Without a sound
Without astound
Without a hope

You're hiding in the light
Living in the dark
The spotlight shines
But Direct light
Doesn't show the marks
You're hiding in the light, broken
We only see a shadow
We only see a silhouette
