After the Curtain Fell

[Intro] (Synth + steady disco beat, faint reverb guitar) The crowd is gone, the lights are dim, Echoes fade where we’ve been... [Verse 1] The curtain fell and the play was done, Everyone clapped, said it was fun. The smiles, the lights — all fade away, Now the stage is cold and gray. [Pre-Chorus] I saw your eyes behind the mask, A shadow no applause could mask. [Chorus] After the curtain fell, You’re lost inside your shell. The show was a dream, but now you see — It’s empty, just like me. [Verse 2] The floor is littered with paper hearts, All the actors drift apart. The makeup runs, the mirror lies, And silence fills the sky. [Pre-Chorus] You ask if fame can heal the pain, But the spotlight fades again. [Chorus] After the curtain fell, You’re lost inside your shell. The play was gold, the night divine — But who’s behind the line? [Bridge] (Synth arpeggio + whispered backing) Was it love, or just the scene? A fragile script, a silver dream. Thunderous cheers, then nothing more — You’re standing by the exit door. [Chorus – Final] After the curtain fell, No truth in what we sell. The crowd moved on, the lights went out — And silence took the bow. [Outro] The curtain fell... and all that’s left — is you.
