Lyrics
Today you say you want to go
You're sick and tired of all the drama
You think I'm crazy, maybe so
And I remind you of your mama
Well, hey, it's okay
We were actors in a play ---
That had to close on opening night
The casting was great
But our lines were so cliché
Let's drop the curtain, kill the lights (that's right)
(Kill the lights, Kill the lights!)
We were both preoccupied
Hurting from the last rejection
We pretended and we lied
Never found a true connection
So, hey, it's okay
We were actors in a play ---
That had to close on opening night
The casting was great
But our lines were so cliché
Let's drop the curtain, kill the lights (that's right)
(Kill the lights, Kill the lights!)
I wish you well, as you do me
Soon we will fade from memory, you'll see
Solo
For now, I'd rather be alone
Explore the bliss of peace and quiet
A long vacation on my own
My friend, perhaps you ought to try it!
So, hey, it's okay
We were actors in a play ---
That had to close on opening night
The casting was great
But our lines were so cliché
Let's drop the curtain, kill the lights (that's right)
(Kill the lights, Kill the lights!)
