The music’s slowly dying
The crowd’s going home
The band is packed and leaving
again I’m left all alone

The music used to play all night
The soundtrack of our teenage lives
The music changed, but I stayed the same
Alone with only myself to blame

Forever’s a lie never said goodbyes
Fairy tales that never came true
Dreams become life, they cut like a knife
Time to give the devil his due

Promises made in the dark
Promises made on a wishing star
Knowing it won’t, but hoping for a night
Dreaming in color, living in black and white

The memories are fading away
though some faces still remain
with voice echoing of the past
as the only song that remains

Forever’s a lie never said goodbyes
Fairy tales that never came true
Dreams become life, they cut like a knife
Time to give the devil his due
Time to give the devil his due
