What We're Here For

Here we all are in the outfits you picked
And I can’t say we’re not playing our part
We’re the ones you want for now
Will we lift you up to only let you down
And leave you in the dark
Do you like it, 'cause we just can’t help but notice
That you keep on leaving here the same
Are we here tonight for just what you want?
Or is there something else that this is for?
We can’t let it slide, and just close our eyes
'Cause maybe when it’s over you’ll walk out the door
With what we’re here for
We’re like puppets on a string
Hanging here until you finally let us go
And send us out on our way
There is only just one thing
That is worth the time and worth remembering
Out there in the fray
And you’ll know it, when it hits you in that moment
The truth’s the only reason we came
We’re more than just actors
It’s more than a play
This life as you know it’s fading away
