Snap

And after the final show,
I smiled goodbye and I bowed
while the audience clapped furiously
I hid my sadness above my doubt
Back in my lonely room
I secretly and silently cried
while the onlookers walked away
but listened with false pride
To the girl with blonde hair
bending herself in two
for the love of a man who left her
claiming he didn't know what to do

too far to reach the morning
too far to stay awake
too far to heed the warning
too far too simply take

One final look in the mirror
My quivering lips too chapped
I felt my heart break forever
I felt my soul snap
