when the musix over

We'll be there in a few years
I mean minutes
I mean, what's that melody your humming?
If we stop now we may miss the show.
I remembered to write down the lyrics
cause I know you really like to sing along.
We're stepping on stage
and its your turn to let go.
All of it now.
Quietly, I'll carry this overture
over every broken
line,
beat,
heart.
Those aren't memorized words your spraying.
Long ago you gave up the past.
Now you're here.
A no age of now.
And now this song is almost over.
And I'm afraid all you are is this song.
And you'll burn up in that fiery last note.
I've already forgotten your face but I bet I can still hum your melody.
