I know, i know...
You've come to take me down.
I knew this would happen.

Relax,
Could it be you were meant for this?
Did you ever doubt it?

But if i cease to be,
What of all those lonely, lonely nights?
Your darkroom and your 8x10's?
And if i cease to be,
Who will you believe in anymore?
This world is such a bore.

Some lives
Have a way of colliding and blurring into headlines.
I've had
Dreams about this for years, you know.
(thought you would be taller.)

But if i cease to be,
What of all those lonely, lonely nights?
Your darkroom and your 8x10's?
And if i cease to be,
Who will you believe in anymore?
This world is such a bore.

Such a beautiful world,
What a beautiful lie.
Such a beautiful world,
What a beautiful lie.
Such a beautiful world,
What a beautiful,
A beautiful lie.

Maybe i'm amazed at how real this is.
That's why i?m not frightened.
Oh no, guess my time's coming to an end.
You've taken your mask off.
Such a beautiful world,
What a beautiful lie.
Such a beautiful world,
What a beautiful lie.
Such a beautiful world,
What a beautiful,
A beautiful lie.
