There's a bright light in the hallway
And a stop-sign in the doorway
And this years flowers stoop their heads and die/have already begun to die*
There's a notebook full of good will
And good intentions like an oilspill
And applause leaves you dry inside

There's only one door marked exit
And you're only one drink from forgetting
There's always someone that gets left behind

And the loneliest place
Is the losers dressing room
It's the bitter sweet taste of a love that you'll never know
And it's the sweethearts embrace when there's no more tomorrow
Just don't close the door when you leave

So it's gloves off with the mirror
You know it's rude to stare at a sinner
Just screw your eyes shut and maybe he'll go away
The phone's dead in its cradle
You know you're willing but disabled
The longest distance is always the final mile

There's only one door marked exit
And you're only one drink from forgetting
There's always someone that gets left behind

And the loneliest place
Is the losers dressing room
It's the bitter sweet taste of a love that you'll never know
And it's the sweethearts embrace when there's no more tomorrow
Just don't close the door when you leave
The last thing you lose is the key

It's getting brighter

And the loneliest place
Is the losers dressing room
It's the bitter sweet taste of a love that you'll never know
And it's the sweethearts embrace when there's no more tomorrow
Just don't close the door when you leave

*I vary this every time I play it, depending on how I feel on the night.  But I think the 2nd variant flows better, more rhythmic.

I might as well post here that I like the song very much, mic knocks, sniffs, peaking vocal and all! lol

I'll have to post a newer version that I did in Logic, vocals were a bit better.  Thanks Kings
