The Last Picture Show - Rogue Wave

I’m split open

Waiting for no one

Don’t have a way to survive

It’s not your love that I’m unsure of

I never wanted to die

But oh, the last picture show

That has ever returned us

Take our picture so that we know

That you’ve heard of us

And burned us

You think it’s easy, feeling queasy

And never sleeping at night

Every so often, step from my coffin

And mama, that isn’t right

I don’t have the wisdom

To try to rise up like a phoenix

And paint my face white

I act like I’m dressed out of time

And creep like a ghost that’s on fire

But oh, the last picture show

That has ever returned us

Take our picture so that we know

That you’ve heard of us

This room’s a cancelled show

That has buried and burned us

What if you’re just a clone

A bag of bones and buttons

The sound it splinters so much

It turns into dust

Like the last picture show

That has ever returned us

And burned us
