[Intro]
Nothing sets this night apart
From any other night
People live and laugh and love
So weary and so bright
The moon our witness from the sky
An ever-present watchful eye
And daytime lets go of a tired sigh

As burdens pass and as the night comes through
So lightens every window
And every heart that's blue

As smiles are donned and painted
Misconstrued
So this night wishes all of this was true

Cause the party's like any other of its kind
Lights and wine
Cherry chapstick
All so blind

But a good story's always made from brilliant lies
So gather 'round for opening time

[Pre-Chorus]
One of them falls
The vainest of them all
Moon-lighten in red
Leaving stains on the floor
[Chorus]
And everyone whispers
"Oh, who could have done such a thing?"
"Carries such evil within?"

'Cause the party's a center stage for this vile crime
Everyone's lining up their alibis
But here it comes, a slight of hand so terrifying
The main attraction vanishes out of sight

[Pre-Chorus]
But how is it so?
They search and prowl and trawl
To find that frozen bed
Of guilt and gut unthawed

[Chorus]
And everyone whispers
"Was it you who's done such a thing?"
"Carries such hatred within?"

Now watch as they crumble underneath the lies
Memories returning just won't help this time
They search and ask and blame and fight and sacrifice
Unknowingly reciting all their lines
[Pre-Chorus]
One by one they fall
The brave, the damned, the poor
Shot and pushed and bled
Sanity unmoored

[Chorus]
The last one there whispers
"Oh, who could have done such a thing?"
"Played such a game on a whim?"

[Outro]
Oh no
