Tickets for a Light Show

I can now hear thunder from a million miles away
And the glowing of a red light, I can spot that clear as day
In the shadows of deception, where a lie becomes a truth
It's time to run away now before it catches up with you
So just please don't play pretend
Cause I'll be there at the end
When it's turned from heaven sent
To that devilish extent
In the echoes, truth will peer
Through a chaos that I fear
I know that it ain't crystal clear
Oh but listen here
Cause you're running out of time and you don't know
Yeah you're running so fast, better go slow
I know when I'm being played but you don't, though
And I've been in your position where I don't know
All I want is you to listen but you won't, so
Guess I gotta book my ticket for the light show
You don't know that you're about to go into
I know what you're thinking - that I just seem to project
But when all the lines are linking, damn, there is no time to deflect
So don't say I didn't warn ya, because I've told you this before
That soon you will be fighting in an all-out civil war
So just please don't play pretend
Cause I'll be there at the end
When it's turned from heaven sent
To that devilish extent
In the echoes, truth will peer
Through a chaos that I fear
I know that it ain't crystal clear
Oh but listen here
Cause you're running out of time and you don't know
Yeah you're running so fast, better go slow
I know when I'm being played but you don't, though
And I've been in your position where I don't know
All I want is you to listen but you won't, so
Guess I gotta book my ticket for the light show
You don't know that you're about to go into
