Pull The Curtain Lyrics
(Where'd I go wrong?)
Pull the curtain, begin
Paranoia's wearing thin now
It's wearing thin now
(Where'd I go wrong?)
Close my eyes, realize
I've become the victimized now
Desensitized now
The one and only day has come
I'll pay for all the bad things I've done
(Where'd I go wrong?)
Something's wrong because I find the glamor
In the dark side
In the dark side
(Where'd I go wrong?)
Cheap regrets, can't forget
Falling victim to the debt still
Unpaid in my mind
The one and only day has come
I'll pay for all the bad things I've done
It's gonna take me; you don't know tragedy
I've been to Hell and back, and can't ya tell it?
Close my eyes and lay me down to sleep
I fear the worst might be the object's to explode
And my time is up, so
Why can't I just lie?
The living dead awake, the horror show begins
So pull the curtains over me
(Bring on the panic, the un-controlling manic
It's a free-for-all commandment, every last word
And I don't care)
(Bring on the panic, the un-controlling manic
It's a free-for-all commandment, every last one of you
Suffocate the dreams in my mind
(Well, I can't stop believing)
Drown the thoughts that have me confined
(Something's hard to believe in)
Murder dreams as black as the night
(That I am told to forget)
No one told the end is a lie
Suffocate the dreams in my mind
Drown the thoughts that have me confined
Murder dreams as black as the night
No one told the end is a lie
Now we're gone, do you still feel
The same? Well, now, can't you see?
I need help to stop me from myself
Well, can't you help me now?
Pull the curtain, begin
Paranoia's wearing thin now
It's wearing thin now
(Where'd I go wrong?)
Close my eyes, realize
I've become the victimized now
Desensitized now
I'll pay for all the bad things I've done
Something's wrong because I find the glamor
In the dark side
In the dark side
(Where'd I go wrong?)
Cheap regrets, can't forget
Falling victim to the debt still
Unpaid in my mind
I'll pay for all the bad things I've done
I've been to Hell and back, and can't ya tell it?
Close my eyes and lay me down to sleep
I fear the worst might be the object's to explode
And my time is up, so
Why can't I just lie?
So pull the curtains over me
(Bring on the panic, the un-controlling manic
It's a free-for-all commandment, every last word
And I don't care)
(Bring on the panic, the un-controlling manic
It's a free-for-all commandment, every last one of you
(Well, I can't stop believing)
Drown the thoughts that have me confined
(Something's hard to believe in)
Murder dreams as black as the night
(That I am told to forget)
No one told the end is a lie
Suffocate the dreams in my mind
Drown the thoughts that have me confined
Murder dreams as black as the night
No one told the end is a lie
The same? Well, now, can't you see?
I need help to stop me from myself
Well, can't you help me now?

Pull the curtain, begin Bear a noise, wearing thin now
i think it should be...
Pull the curtain, begin Paranoia's wearing thin now
hmm maybe about feeling how everyone you know whould be happier if you weren't around or guilt or something like that, I dunno that's how it strikes me.
This is my favourite song on the cd and to me it sounds as if he's waking up in a metaphor kind of way... waking up to the fear (paranoia) and robotic lives that we live in society... and I don't mean that in an emo way... it's quite political. The first verse says a lot of that... right away it's "paranoia's wearing thin now" and then "close my eyes, realize I've become the victimized now, desensitized now." And then talking about "The living dead awake" meaning we're like zombies and all of a sudden we wake up to the violent ways we live and that we're exposed to without thought (desensitized). One last line that makes me think this is "something's wrong because I, find the glamour in the darkside." But it also sounds like there's more to the song, I think that's just one aspect of it... thoughts?
In the chorus it's "Gutter dreams as black as the night". Not "Good Dreams"
Oh and it's I "I feel the worst, my beating heart takes to explote" not "might be the urgence takes to explode".In a live version he pointed to his chest.
Another thing, it's "A free for all kill them all, every last one of them, not a "free for all kill memo every last word"
Lastly, it's "Do you still feel the same way now" not "Do you still feel the same? Well now"
"I've been to hell and back, can ya tell it?" Should be "I've been to hell and back again to tell it."
does anyone know what hes saying in the second to last stanza in the background i always wondered
Its a really good song. Idk, i like the last verse were it goes suffocate the dreams in my mind. Idk. Im sure a lot of people could relate. Good song, even though i dont like alot of underclass hero. This songs alright though. He cant really do a very good scream though
I love this song.. i dont really know what it means but it is realllly awesome!
heyy just clarification...in the bit where Deryck screams, is it why can't I just lie, scream, or sleep...because i've seen all three and i'm sorta confused =\
