Lights Go Up - Fucked Up

I am old but I want to do it again

But like the end of a book when there’s no pages left

You can only look back at the time that you spent

Not the life that you wanted but the life that you led

I’ve seen it all but I don’t know what’s next

Ours wasn’t a love for an audience

The pictures we take don’t resolve, they only reflect

Feelin' like I’ve been here before

Stood on this stage, walked through the door

There are still so many things that I’ll never know

After the lights go up and the curtains close

I’ve seen it all but I don’t know what’s next

Ours wasn’t a love for an audience

The pictures we take don’t resolve, they only reflect

I’m still in love with you, after all this time

The best days of my life were when you were mine

Let them be the branches that I used to climb through my life

Sometimes life is so empty, sometimes life is so cold

I wanted to grow with you but I put it on hold

But I’ll see you again when the story gets retold

And I’ve been here before, I’ve been here before

And I’ve been here before, I’ve been here before

Cast a seed to the sky as my valediction

That you could be the vine to grow the truth from the fiction

Empty the theater, rush the door

Start livin' the life you never could before

It’s morning again at the factory

Someone will meet me there, rip me out of my dream

Warm my blood before I say goodbye

A new sun in the sky and love will never die
