As It Is - Curtains Close lyrics

Forced smiles in picture frames
Memories of better days
All these white walls that look
So dark at night
Scared kids sit on the couch
Mom and dad take final bows
And their hearts break as the
Chapter reads its end
Its end

Looking for an answer, the house lights rise
Wishing for an ending that's not goodbye
We watch the curtains close
On all we've known
We watch the curtains close
On all we've known

Yesteryears in coats of blue
Broken vows once spoken true
Knowing being torn in two
Never comes out clean


Out clean

Looking for an answer, the house lights rise
Wishing for an ending that's not goodbye
We watch the curtains close
On all we've known
We watch the curtains close
On all we've known

Every flooded eye will see
The days beyond the broken hearts
With the futures that have had to heal
To learn to live, be better off apart

Looking for an answer, the house lights rise
Wishing for an ending that's not goodbye
We watch the curtains close
On all we've known
We watch the curtains close
On all we've known
It doesn't always matter how hard we try
Sometimes the only ending is just goodnight
We watch the curtains close
On all we've known
(Learn to live and be better off)
We watch the curtains close
On all we've known
(Learn to live and be better off)
