Curtain Call

This ain't a riot

It's a little taste of the way we are

No peace or quiet

'Till the ceiling breaks and we grade the dark

I'm not a child

Still, I want safety and as a fact

It's being wild

But they took the power, take it back

Hope and pray in waiting for the curtain call

What will we see when the curtain finally falls?

It ain't a secret

We're all aware of the way it is

I know you seen it

As I know of the fact of the way we live

Oh, aren't you tired?

If you didn't choose this, then who did?

Where can I find them?

I wanna tell them a couple things

Ooh, so many stories in the same shape

Ooh, how many more of these could we take?

Hope and pray in waiting for the curtain call

What will we see when the curtain finally falls?

Ooh, so many stories of the same fate

Ooh, for how much longer could we take this?

Hope and pray in waiting for the curtain call

Living with this kinda makes no sense at all
