[Verse 1]
Here, we’re just stuck in the spotlight
We should make like shadows and disappear
Silhouettes in the sunset, our final curtain call is drawing near
[Pre-Chorus]
If parting is such sweet sorrow, to hell with waiting for tomorrow
Hand in hand like we planned, as the night takes us away
And I hope when they find me and you in this tomb built for two
They get the glory for the end of our story, and take their fucking bows
[Chorus]
So remember us, the soon dearly departed
And how the war our fathers started
Sealed the fate of star-crossed enemies
You and I both know that death won’t matter
Bring on the poison and the dagger
They set the stage for tragedy
[Verse 2]
Don’t scream cause the show must go on
Though our fairy tale is ripping at the seams
But love doesn’t have to be something that we hide behind the scenes
[Pre-Chorus]
If parting is such sweet sorrow, to hell with waiting for tomorrow
Side by side when we die, as the night takes us away
And I hope when they find me and you in this tomb built for two
They get the glory for the end of our story, and take their fucking bows
[Chorus]
So remember us, the soon dearly departed
And how the war our fathers started
Sealed the fate of star-crossed enemies
You and I both know that death won’t matter
Bring on the poison and the dagger
They set the stage for tragedy
[Bridge]
They set the stage for tragedy
They set the stage for tragedy, they set the stage for tragedy
[Chorus]
So remember us, the soon dearly departed
And how the war our fathers started
Sealed the fate of star-crossed enemies
You and I both know that death won’t matter
Bring on the poison and the dagger
They set the stage for tragedy
