Skipped ahead to the end of the book   Took a chance and took a look   Sometimes we can sometimes worry   Sometimes an answer isn't necessary   I'll see you when the curtain falls      In this town nothing is laid to rest   Nothing wasted, nothing's second guessed   Sometimes a fool rises   Sometimes a good man falls   Sometimes we don't pay attention at all   I'll see you when the curtain falls   I'll see you when the curtain falls      There's a bad moon on the rise tonight   Might be time to set the story right   We can crawl and we can creep   We make excuses till we laugh ourselves to sleep   I'll see you when the curtain falls   I'll see you when the curtain falls   I'll see you when the curtain falls   I'll see you when the curtain falls      (guitar)      And the audience has rushed the stage   But no one's there to meet their rage   Passed out drunk on cheap delights   Too bored to scream and too tired to fight   I'll see you when the curtain falls   I'll see you when the curtain falls   I'll see you when the curtain falls
