Lyrics
The girl sits all alone
A candle burns
She's thinking for herself
Will I ever learn?

She is almost blue, she still loves you
But knows when things are through

She pauses all those scenes
Before the story wanes
He knew the lines by heart
But did he know what he was saying?

Now she's almost blue, she still loves you
But knows when things are through

She remakes and relives
And acts out the sequel
She's living in close up
But not with real people
She's lonely and crazy
In need of attention
She needs more than friendship
To ease the tension

She's almost blue, she still loves you
But knows when things are through

Touch down
The flight of fancy had to end
And time would find another friend
Who wouldn't have to ask why
He made you want to die
