So Epic

(album: Time Flies - 2017)

The fog machine is off and the lights are soft
And the credits roll
Still looking at you
And I don't know what to do, huh, babe
Cuz I read ahead in the script
Your part was clipped
You need a new career
Won't be a part 2, at least not for you, no, babe

Cuz your lines said I love you, baby
But now I know it's not true, baby

It's so epic when the battle is won
And we're not together
It's so epic
When your name ain't in lights and nobody remembers
The story's done and the hero's gone
And it's over
So epic, yeah, so epic without you

What good is the starring role if you star alone?
It's a monologue
Goddammit, I'm screwed
I don't know what to do
I pray for your cameo
Steal the show, let it come on
You got a lot to prove
I can't hear you talk, baby

Cuz your lines said I love you, baby
But now I know it's not true, baby

It's so epic when the battle is won
And we're not together
It's so epic
When your name ain't in lights and nobody remembers
The story's done and the hero's gone
And it's over
So epic, yeah, so epic without you

You can't change the murder you wrote
You broke my heart and you stole the show
And all the pain you caused, you did it just because
You knew that you could get away with it
I never cared about revenge
A game that no one ever wins
No, I don't believe in fairy tales
But I know that I'll make it to the end

It's so epic when the battle is won
And we're not together

It's so epic
When your name ain't in lights and nobody remembers
The story's done and the hero's gone
And it's over
So epic, yeah, so epic without you
