Well the set was so exact and there we sat inside the bedroom of my past 
We made from scraps to match the photographs of all known facts 
And that was that 
The actress playing you was waiting for her cue 
She asked me, how much of this script is really [bad word]  
I wish I knew 
Now close your eyes 
There's nothing wrong that a fade out til it's gone 
And the whole thing blends together like a song that's way to long 
All these troubles all these lies 
All these cities all these minds 
I can see it in my sights 
It makes me pray the things we stay the things we say the things we learn that day 
thousand times I swear that I'm okay 
‘Cause I can see the future 

We ran through the scenes just fine 
She knew her lines and I knew mine 
And every time we reached the end 
That's where we started all again 

Now and then I look right through the cast and crew into the past I thought I knew 
But usually it's hard to separate the two 
Now close your eyes 
There's nothing wrong that a fade out ‘til it's gone 
And the whole thing blends together like a song that's way to long 
And the band was out of sight 
Did it make you feel alright? 
Did you see their faces hyponotized in your eyes 
(It makes me pray the things) we stay the things we say the things we learn that day 
Questions and suggestions and the things we're supposed to mention all the time 
To meet this guy who you should know who just came by to see this girl 
(who) missed the calls I misdecided which to take and which can wait 
????????? before the curtains raised 
I can see the future.
