The Fat Lady Sings
Our love became a raging riot
It started loud but ended quiet
The fireworks all turned to dust
Something broke the two of us
My heart is heavy, full of song
But I can tell that something's wrong
Laughter turned to silent screams
We woke from our haunted dreams
It's all over when the fat lady sings
Time to move on to better things
The curtains fall, lights fade away
No more songs are left to play
Audience cheers with roaring delight
The fat lady sang, so it's over tonight
We were the storm but now it's calm
Letting go of a ticking bomb
Words like daggers leave a mark
No more picnics in the park
Every goodbye still feels unkind
Your shadow lingers in my mind
Empty halls of love gone stale
Yet we drifted set to sail
Endings come with a final note
Tears mix with the melodies
No more trying to stay afloat
Sink or swim in memories
The curtains fall, lights fade away
No more songs are left to play
Audience cheers with roaring delight
The fat lady sang, so it's over tonight
The final act has come to a close
And your left sitting in the shadows
It started loud but ended quiet
The fireworks all turned to dust
Something broke the two of us
My heart is heavy, full of song
But I can tell that something's wrong
Laughter turned to silent screams
We woke from our haunted dreams
It's all over when the fat lady sings
Time to move on to better things
The curtains fall, lights fade away
No more songs are left to play
Audience cheers with roaring delight
The fat lady sang, so it's over tonight
We were the storm but now it's calm
Letting go of a ticking bomb
Words like daggers leave a mark
No more picnics in the park
Every goodbye still feels unkind
Your shadow lingers in my mind
Empty halls of love gone stale
Yet we drifted set to sail
Endings come with a final note
Tears mix with the melodies
No more trying to stay afloat
Sink or swim in memories
The curtains fall, lights fade away
No more songs are left to play
Audience cheers with roaring delight
The fat lady sang, so it's over tonight
The final act has come to a close
And your left sitting in the shadows
