​curtains
[Intro]
Is my life a curtain call
Or a cane that yearns to yank me off?
Am I worthy of applause?
Tomato shades parade my jaw

[Verse 1]
I'm afraid this game we play
Will kill me if I leave its ways
Curtains crafted to create
A veil between the bite and bait
I have sat on many planes
Observed the way they are arranged
If you get to Heaven's gate
Don't expect to pay your way

[Chorus]
Castles near and dear to kings
Will not survive what fire brings
I know I'm young but I'm not naive
The kings will survive evеrything

[Verse 2]
I'm afraid this game we play
Will kill me еven if I stay
Play this game for paper's sake
Just to have my name erased
[Outro]
You're not the savior
I have paid for
Wronged my wallet
Just to know more
I paid for language
And the wages
Stayed the same
As when you're frameless
You're not the savior
I have paid for now
You're not the savior now
You're not the savior now
