Crowd begins to rustle     Lights begin to dim Performers begin to sweat The curtain fades The noise of the audience fade     The first act music-student's courage fades He focuses on the notation sheet   Stage lights focus on him     Spectators focus on the teenager   He plays the first downbow note                   The crowd listens to him                     Lights shine, never faltering             - Multitude begins to grow impatient Lasers begin to blink on Pop stars begin to nod at each other The darkness on the stage fades Distraction fades from the crowd Sweat on the band's hands fade She focuses on the expanse of people Yellow lights focus on all of them The sea of people focus on the song Bassist plays the intro Die-hard fans listen to the heartthrob Strobe lights shine, excitement escalates                     -                                                                                                                              Big finale performed by the orchestra                          People shiver in their seats                                          Wood stage vibrates                                The curtains are drawn         Listeners sated, their scores are a draw       Philharmonic members draw smiles           Assembly gives a standing ovation         Each student gives a triumphant bow     Curtains give way                                                                                                 Backstage, the people laugh                       Stage director laughs from relief   Congregation laughs from witty student's last remark - Last verse of fulfilling song performed by band Top section shivers from air conditioner Big speakers vibrate on last note Projector screens are drawn Crowds draw their phones for selfies Drummer draws his experience on notebook Spectators give shouts of, "Encore!" Band members give their farewell Coliseum gives back lights Pianist laughs recalling his slip Volunteers laugh from crowd's reaction   Fans laugh at guitarist signing for them

Like the legend of the phoenix
Crowd begins to rustle     Lights begin to dim Performers begin to sweat The curtain fades The noise of the audience fade     The first act music-student's courage fades He focuses on the notation sheet   Stage lights focus on him     Spectators focus on the teenager   He plays the first downbow note                   The crowd listens to him                     Lights shine, never faltering             - Multitude begins to grow impatient Lasers begin to blink on Pop stars begin to nod at each other The darkness on the stage fades Distraction fades from the crowd Sweat on the band's hands fade She focuses on the expanse of people Yellow lights focus on all of them The sea of people focus on the song Bassist plays the intro Die-hard fans listen to the heartthrob Strobe lights shine, excitement escalates                     -                                                                                                                              Big finale performed by the orchestra                          People shiver in their seats                                          Wood stage vibrates                                The curtains are drawn         Listeners sated, their scores are a draw       Philharmonic members draw smiles           Assembly gives a standing ovation         Each student gives a triumphant bow     Curtains give way                                                                                                 Backstage, the people laugh                       Stage director laughs from relief   Congregation laughs from witty student's last remark - Last verse of fulfilling song performed by band Top section shivers from air conditioner Big speakers vibrate on last note Projector screens are drawn Crowds draw their phones for selfies Drummer draws his experience on notebook Spectators give shouts of, "Encore!"
