Decemberists, The - I Was Meant For The Stage Lyrics

Submitted by: AUTO-ADD
Current Rating: None
I was meant for the stage, I was meant for the curtain. I was meant to tread these boards, Of this much i am certain. I was meant for the crowd, I was meant for the shouting. I was meant to raise these hands With quiet all about me. oh, oh. Mother, please, be proud. Father, be forgiven. Even though you told me 'Son, you'll never make a living.' oh, oh. From the floorboards to the fly, Here I was fated to reside. And as I take my final bow, Was there ever any doubt? And as the spotlights fade away, And you're escorted through the foyer, You will resume your callow ways, But I was meant for the stage. The heavens at my birth Intended me for stardom, Rays of light shone down on me And all my sins were pardoned. I was meant for applause. I was meant for derision. Nothing short of fate itself Has affected my decision. oh, oh. From the floorboards to the fly, here i was fated to reside. And as I take my final bow, Was there ever any doubt? And as the spotlights fade away, And you're escorted through the foyer, You will resume your callow ways, But I was meant for the stage.
