Bittersweet

Everyone is happening, all the girls and boys
 Everyone is trying, to make a little noise
 Everyone is listening, nothing to say
 Everyone is dying, to give themselves away
 All of the pretending, all the pseudonyms
 Play it like a board game, sing it like a hymn
 It's bittersweet
 It's bittersweet
 Every curtain falls eventually
 A big year in the headlines, you finally got your shot
 Tough year in the bylines, no one read the plot
 Big year at the box office, everyone's at your show
 Strange year on the home front, nobody knows
 Finally found your wheels kid, take 'em for a spin
 Play it like a board game, sing it like a hymn
 It's bittersweet
 It's bittersweet
 Every curtain falls eventually
 You better take a picture, you better write it down
 What you always wanted, won't always be around
 It's bittersweet
 It's bittersweet
 Every curtain falls eventually
