Histrion

At the end of the hall
There's a knock at the door
Opportunity laid bare
(I think I see the light, I think I see the light)
Give a hand, tell a clue
Par cans fade to blue
Will this be just what I need?
(I think I see the light, I think I see the light)

Comb my hair
Dressing the part with ease
Always I play the dope
Barefoot and dumb
I hold my breath
While the crowd is up and leaving
No roses for the fool I've been
That I've been

I think I see the light, I think I see the light
Could I ever play in time?
Don't recall a single line
I think I see the light, I think I see the light

A big crane
Pulls me high
By the whole of my frame
The roses bursting out
From the floor of the theater stage
They're enveloping me
They're enveloping me

And I cry out in joy
'Cause I'm finally full
And there's nothing left
For me to burn down
And your voice is so bright
That it's burning my skin
And then right when we touch
When we touch, when we touch
I wake up
I wake up
I wake up
I wake up
