All Characters Imaginary
In your life stage show,
Leaving you in an one-act play,
Thronging behind the curtains,
The Stage, the Lights, the People, the Glow
And a very stoic you in your life stage show.


All Characters Imaginary
In your life stage show,
Prompting your moves,
Scripting your monologues,
The Crescendo, the Crisis, the Core so hollow
With a very stoic you in your life stage show.

Their vicious smiles so mesmerizing,
From the depths of darkness keep arising,
Your Space, your World, your Highs, your Low,
And the Moments of truth that let you know
All characters imaginary
In your life stage show.

Dazzling stage-lights fading with time,
Playing hide and seek with your stage regime,
The people standing for you exit with cheer,
As curtains roll down with you in the rear,
Standing you face to face,
Peeling their coats off their surface,
In your life stage show,
All characters imaginary,
Following you in your eternal stage journey.
