Eight Seconds by Touch Amor Lyrics

[Verse 1]
There is no dress rehearsal
Just a script that I've never read
A sad story that is universal
A vague idea of what to expect

[Chorus]
Is it curtains already?
I haven't learned my lines
Is it curtains already?
I just thought that we'd have more time

[Verse 2]
A missed call with a message attached
"We need to talk when you have the chance"
I stood frozen in that Gainesville venue
Not knowing how to react

[Chorus]
Is it curtains already?
I haven't learned my lines
Is it curtains already?
I'll improvise
[Bridge]
Not surprising I put off the call
Socialized and put up a wall
Anything to prolong the chances
Before confirming she was really gone
I crossed Southwest Second Street
Made the call and stared at my feet
"She passed away about an hour ago
While you were onstage living the dream"
