No Curtain Call Lyrics
You say you need someone
But everybody does
I'm no different than you
I just believe what I do
You point your finger at
Everyone but yourself
And blame the ones that you love
Who are only trying to help
As it's winding down to zero
I am your unlikely hero
I'll see this through
There's so much me and you
Take this enemy together
Fight these demons off forever forever forever forever
Five, four, three, two, one I won't stop until it's done
No curtain call, I will not fall
This may be the one we've been waiting for
No curtain call, just take it all
I have no time for fear
Or people in my ear
Head down and running so fast
Try not to dwell on the past
I'm fighting through this pain
And things I cannot change
Running right into the flame
Rather than running away
As it's winding down to zero
I am your unlikely hero
I'll see this through
There's so much me and you
Take this enemy together
Fight these demons off forever forever forever forever
Five, four, three, two, one I won't stop until it's done
No curtain call, I will not fall
This may be the one we've been waiting for
No curtain call, just take it all
Sweat drips down from every angle
Love your body as it gathers in a pool by your feet
You turn up the heat
Tossing and turning, you cannot sleep
Quietly weep, you're in too deep
Five, four, three, two, one I won't stop until it's done
No curtain call, I will not fall
This may be the one we've been waiting for
No curtain call, just take it all
Five, four, three, two, one I won't stop until it's done
No curtain call, I will not fall
This may be the one we've been waiting for
No curtain call, just take it all
But everybody does
I'm no different than you
I just believe what I do
Everyone but yourself
And blame the ones that you love
Who are only trying to help
I am your unlikely hero
I'll see this through
There's so much me and you
Take this enemy together
Fight these demons off forever forever forever forever
No curtain call, I will not fall
This may be the one we've been waiting for
No curtain call, just take it all
Or people in my ear
Head down and running so fast
Try not to dwell on the past
And things I cannot change
Running right into the flame
Rather than running away
I am your unlikely hero
I'll see this through
There's so much me and you
Take this enemy together
Fight these demons off forever forever forever forever
No curtain call, I will not fall
This may be the one we've been waiting for
No curtain call, just take it all
Love your body as it gathers in a pool by your feet
You turn up the heat
Tossing and turning, you cannot sleep
Quietly weep, you're in too deep
No curtain call, I will not fall
This may be the one we've been waiting for
No curtain call, just take it all
No curtain call, I will not fall
This may be the one we've been waiting for
No curtain call, just take it all

"But everybody does" sounds more like "Well everybody does" "I am yours like a hero" sounds more like "I am your unlikely hero"
I agree with I am your unlikely hero. Thought the same thing! ( :

I think this song is about Adam's frustration with the girl he's with, or maybe even a friend. The person he is singing about obviously has a lot of problems and she is "pointing the finger at everyone but herself", but he is still trying to stay with her and save her aka "running through the flame instead of running away". The song is basically his plea to her, to figure herself out and get the help he needs, or just get him help her aka "Take this enemy together, fight these demons off forever forever forever forever" He is saying, we could be something great, and I'm not trying to end us, but you need to let me help you. It could very easily be about some sort of addiction or disorder in my opinion.
This sounds like a song about a girl who suffers from depression. There's things wrong with her but she doesn't want to admit it. Feels like she needs everyone else to hold her up. And this guy is the one holding her up though he can't change her. Only she can really help herself. But he's not giving up.

I agree with the previous comment... but I also read it as maybe someone he cares about - girlfriend or whatever - struggling with night terrors or something similar and refuses all attempts of help? "tossing and turning.." "take this enemy together,
"There's so much me and you" --> sounds more like "There's so much me in you" ... makes more sense IMO.
IN who?????

I am sick today and I am mean today. So unless you plan to come over tonight and help take care of me (or at least read to me), than I don't wish to speak with you. I'd even settle for shadow puppets on the wall, but instead you'll be out with someone and I'll be one the phone with someone. Now I'm going to lie down on the bed before I either fall out of my chair or attempt to verbally harm you.

Im sorry you're not feeling well. But when are you ever not mean? Gheesh. Go to bed, grumps.

I would love to read to you, or play shadow puppets.
