Scott Matthew wrote “In the End” for the movie “Shortbus” (2006). In the film Mx. Justin Vivian Bond sings the song accompanied by the Hungry March Band. The soundtrack for the film includes an acoustic version with Matthew singing.
We all bear the scars
Yeah, we all feign a laugh
We all cry in the dark
Get cut off before we start
And as your first act begins
You realise they're all waiting
For a fall, for a flaw, for the end
And there's a path stained with tears
Could you talk to quiet my fears
Could you pull me aside
Just to acknowledge that i've tried
As your last breath begins
Contently take it in
Cause we all get it in
The end
And as your last breath begins
You find your demon's your best friend
And we all get it in
The end
