One Man Show

Verse 1:

I remember holding yesterday
Like a prized and stolen ring
And I kept my heart inside a box
Full of old and tattered things
Where the paper trails like to go
And the masters and the monsters always know
That I was singing to myself in a one man show

Verse 2:

Deep inside the deepest avalanche
Is a warm inviting place
And I go there still ‘cause I need to be filled
With an unforgotten embrace
Where I lose my need to control
All the enemies that I will never know
Losing a spot in line for the one man show

Bridge:

If I go all alone into the world without a friend
I won’t know how to give the love that’s always been within

Verse 3:

Well it seems to be an awful sight
As the old defenses fall
But these walls were made from rotted wood
No more life in them at all
The patrons all went home a while ago
The cleaning crew is sweeping up the floor
Pulling the curtain down on the one man show
Saying a last goodbye to the one man show
Yeah, to the one man show
