Lyrics Green Carnation

Green Carnation

Crushed To Dust

He took a long look in the mirror

Shook his head

Felt the arms of God letting go

Couldn't breathe

It had to stop

Voices screaming out inside of him

The world was turning black

Cold, cruel and vicious

Time was knocking on a closing door

Wanting more

Playing pieces of a life long play

In which the starring actor

Makes the world go around inside his head

Then suddenly the act is ending

The lights are dimming and the music's fading

There was a woman lying on the floor

Blueish, pale

Staring a hole through his soul

There was blood underneath

The shotgun lying next too her

He mumbled "am I closer now

Is this the path that God has chosen out for me?"

Playing pieces of a life long play

In which the starring actor

Makes the world go around inside his head

Then suddenly the act is ending

The lights are dimming and the music's fading

"Cut", he said. "Let's wrap it up! We're finished here!"

Playing pieces of a life long play

In which the starring actor

Makes the world go around inside his head

Then suddenly the act is ending

The lights are dimming and the music's fading
