Backseat Goodbye - Curtain Call lyrics

rate me

God came down in the middle of the day

a kid with a camera caught it all on tape

everyone was clapping, singing songs of glory and praise

they didn't seem to notice wires hanging from the clouds

the lights were too bright but they made it worth while

'cause it was kinda like a movie where the curtain call raises the crowd

lightning bolts fell like rain from above

but they were just effects so no one got hurt

it's funny just to think that maybe, just maybe we're all wrong

so you can read your books and i'll question all the words

i'm not saying you're a liar but the proof is no good

for me, maybe i'm just too naive.

but at least i'll admit i'm flawed

yeah i've a pointed a finger or pushed off the blame

but the reasons that you're breathing they just ain't the same as you say

you can't pray for truth with those lies in your hands

i love you

but you're afraid of saying that back

just because i don't believe in all the same fairytales as you

doesn't mean i'm so bad

the future's all you have if you forget the past

so why not forgive and make the memories last

it's not up to me or a bible tale

you're the one that moves your feet

so you can follow any path, roadsign or white lie

stumble forward, fall in love, chase the clouds, close your eyes

anything anyway you want, just don't let me or a book someone else wrote make up your mind

you can't pray for truth with a lie in your hand

you don't need a miracle to save a life

you'll never be able to relive yesterday

so go ahead and enjoy today while you can
