Текст песни Matt Boroff - Garbage Man

wake me up when this movie is over
after the fanfare and the crawl
the only thing I've come here to see
are the dancing shadows on the wall
the dancing shadows on the wall

you're the voice, you're the shroud, you're the curtain
you're the shelter I crave
you're the hand that's waiting to lead me
back to the bars of my cage
back to the bars of my cage

all at once I see the truth
of what I could never face
knowing what I should've done
the lessons that I've learned too late
they deliver me now to my fate

I've been a fool, a saint, a sinner and a blind man
I've been all of them and more
my past it's a book that I threw in the garbage
then I carried it out the back door
I carried it out the back door

all at once I see the truth
of what I could never face
knowing what I should've done
the lessons that I've learned too late
and if you could see me now
you'd never recognize
the garbage man that I've become
burning the trash of my life
all of this once was mine
but I threw it away
