Endless Matinee

The gauge is on red, can't go anymore
Just give it some time, you'll make it I'm sure

There's some kind of pride, I kept down inside
It's keepin me on, not weak but not strong

Something you said, something you need
Your hero left notes, you might as well read

To aim for the sun or crash in the street
You're a star either way, now be obsolete

And I know it's getting worse with every day
They're not on your side but at least they don't lie anymore

Fall breaks hard Brian, Syd, and Joshua
Soft hands break stone I've had enough

Hung down wheels up he shoots today
Makeup run down he's far away

Brave new world you are hollow and faint you're just the
Same old world with a new coat of paint

Born in the sun, born under glass
The minute I blink, an hour goes past

What's in a song that ain't in a face
You either forget, or just can't replace

I'm all out of lies to tell the mirror
The jury speak true, but never speak clear

Time doesn't know which wound it heals
It rips and it mends whatever it feels

I can't stand myself, but there's room in my heart
So with the sky falling down, I might as well start
