It's Over

Just like that the sun is shining
Frees me from my arctic night
Standing still, my hands stop shaking
Stretch my legs? I think I might
Prisoner in that ivory bunker
So damn nearly lost myself
Stealthy slow your fetters bound me
Oh what tales these walls could tell
There’s nothing sad here, it’s just over, it’s over, that’s all
Tears you cry for empty moments
History’s no cause to stay
Sometime while our hearts were sleeping
This arose and slowly slipped away
I can’t keep this smile a secret
Finally we’ve done what’s right
Graceful as we’ve never been
Let us fade, it’ll be all right
So don’t be sad, dear, it’s just over, it’s over, that’s all
You should be glad we’re not banging heads anymore
We became the enemy, me to you and you to me
It’s over, it’s over, it’s over, that’s all
We’ve been trapped in a room caught in a blaze
While we lie on our backs, so amazed
Choked by fear and desire, feed the pain
Here’s a match, light a fire, burn this shame
One brave stand and then we crumble
One last dance on feet of clay
It’s one less lie we’re forced to live through
Feels better off this way
I wonder how to keep it quiet
I wonder just how long it’s been
The truth, it seems, never mattered
Can’t believe it still gets in
