No Champagne Songtext
In a theatre gazing at better life
When the stage lights blew, I went ghostly white
What was just in my reach is now a vague memory
Can you imagine that?
With a short wave signal running through my heart
I was holy rolling as the ocean parted
Following a thread that unraveled from the head of some American

Feel your eyes glaze over
While the moon goes black
When the wind catches fire
There's no shadow left to cast
Now we stare in a mirror
And we laugh and laugh
'Cause there is no turnin' back

You can sharpen your teeth on the stark absurd
Still in love with heaven but you hate the world
Brittle brained and snide with a tongue too tied
Fix your heart or die
Set it all on fire just to see a flame
But now you're bitchin' and moanin' 'cause there's no champagne
Catch the ponies dance in a half cracked glance of eternity

With your dearest friends you can't confide
About the darker parts you try to hide
The chariot swings but you avert your eyes
'Cause God knows there's no such thing as paradise

An idyllic setting on an open plane
Where the sun shines down on your lover's face
The universe will hiss when you lean in for the kiss
And the house lights blow out

Feel your eyes glaze over
While the moon goes black
When the wind catches fire
There's no shadow left to cast
Now we just stare in a mirror
And we laugh and laugh
'Cause there is no turnin' back
