Finally, it's time to leave
Time to break away
The curtain falls
The lights are slowly fading down
No matter how hard we tried
The flame flickered and died
Shine on, we turn the page and walk away and let it go
Shine on, 'cause in forgiveness lays salvation we both know
So here we are, here we stand, you and me
Lost in the end, in our charade, our travesty
There's always a price to pay
We fight as we hope and pray
Shine on, we turn the page and walk away and let it go
Shine on, even though I did believe I know it's so
Shine on, we turn the page and walk away and let it go
Shine on, 'cause in forgiveness lays salvation we both know
Shine on, now let the rain begin to fall and purify
Shine on, 'cause in the absence of belief we tell a lie
