Act V, Scene IV: And So It Ends Like It Begins Lyrics

The smell of incense

It fills the air inside this room

Casablanca lillies strewn about the floor

A casket lined with pills

And the bitter taste of absinthe to wash it down

And so it ends like it began

A tattered cross along this interstate

A worn inscription all cracked and faded

These etchings will remain

When bodies turn to dust

And from this monument

I will drown inside the anguish of your heart



A new dawn broke this morning

Tears were raining in this room

As pure as holy water

Reflecting images of you

This world is like a whore

So ravishing, so beautiful

So bitter cold and all alone



And if I had my way

We'd wake up on the day we met

I'd stare into your heart for hours

And try to make you hear the sweetest thoughts

But not tonight

We die inside each other arms

We revel in our last embrace

I steal a breath right from your heart

And kiss you as we die



I rest my lifeless head upon your heart forever

I rest my lifeless head upon your heart forever

I rest my lifeless head upon your heart forever

I rest my lifeless head upon your heart forever



Maybe I'll greet sunlight after all

I'm sorry

Maybe I'll greet sunlight after all

I'm sorry

Maybe I'll greet sunlight after all

I'm sorry

Maybe I'll greet sunlight after all

So sorry

Maybe I'll greet sunlight after all

I'm sorry

Maybe I'll greet sunlight after all
