Curtain calls

The final act sits writing death threats in the corner
line up for curtain calls or great leaps forward
Sedated homes in rows like graves for miles and miles
Are you living life or just getting by?
Counting lines and cracks in the pavement
will your last lines speak of glory or regret?
Do you chase dollar signs or good times?
Are you living life or just getting by
when you close your eyes and say goodnight for the last time
Will your last lines speak of glory or or regret?
This is your one chance and it's all you get
so make the best of it
Will you fall asleep while years just disappear
no memories, just frequencies ringing in your ears
Do you chase dollar signs or good times?
Settling down is an easy way to swallow giving up
settling down is an easy way to say "I'm giving up"
