Fucked Up - Light Goes Up lyrics

I am old but I want to do it again
But like the end of a book
When there are no pages left
You can only look back at
The time that you spent
Not the life that you wanted but
The life that you led

I've seen it all but I don't know what's next
Ours wasn't a love for an audience
The pictures we take don't resolve
They only reflect

Feeling like I've been here before
Stood on this stage, walked through that door
There are still so many things
That I will never know
After the lights go up and the curtains close
I've seen it all but I don't know what's next
Ours wasn't a love for an audience
The pictures we take don't resolve
They only reflect

I'm still in love with you
After all this time the best days of my life
Were when you were mine
They'll be the branches I always use
To climb through my life

Sometimes life is so empty
Sometimes life is so cold
I wanted to grow old with you
But I put that on hold
I'll see you again when our story gets retold

And I've been here before
I've been here before
And I've been here before
I've been here before

Cast a seed to the sky as my valediction
That you could be the vine to
Grow a truth from the fiction
Empty the theatre, rush through the door
Start living the life you never could before
It's the morning again at the factory
Someone will meet me there and rip
Me out of my dream
Warm my blood before I say goodbye
A new sun in the sky and love will never die
