I’ll burn your final curtain for some kinda warmth.
And fill our pockets stuffed from the ashes to prove what once was.
These walls built high.
Progress from the ground up to stand before it all, caves in, give them a place something they can believe in.
All roads that lead to nothing are the ones you call home.
Magnolia street, American Beat, a small room swallowed in light.
Reverie in comfort, the years take but don’t give back.
A memory collecting dust, a picture framed within the heart.
I’ll burn the final curtain with iron still warm.
And everything you take for granted was a vision once forged.
With heads hung low.
Was progress from the ground up to stand, before it all caved in.
This gave them a place something they could believe in.
All roads that lead to nothing are the ones you call home.
Magnolia street, American Beat, a small room swallowed in light.
Reverie in comfort, the years take but don’t give back.
A memory collecting dust, a picture framed within the heart.
