Dress Rehearsal Songtext
von Seven Storey Mountain

There′s no time like the time that is past
But you remember how it was
And how this isn't at all
There′s no dream like the dream that you had
But you can't recall
And that stinks
The memory's so full of flaws

No dress rehearsal for the event of a lifetime
A flawed example of
What we could have made divine
A bunch of idiots
With loud voices and lots of time
No dress rehearsal for the event of a lifetime


There′s this peak that you see and you′re near
But you cannot climb
'Cause it′s high
And you've been feeling so low
There′s this place that they say is the best
But you can not find
But they wreak of hemlock and cyanide

No dress rehearsal for the event of a lifetime
A flawed example of
What we could have made divine
A bunch of idiots
With loud voices and lots of time
No dress rehearsal for the event of a lifetime

There's this thing that you see and you want
But you don′t understand
And some day it's up, up, up and away
There's this way that you look when you lie
That you can′t escape
So you try to criticize and deny


No dress rehearsal for the event of a lifetime
A flawed example of
What we could have made divine
A bunch of idiots
With loud voices and lots of time
No dress rehearsal for the event of a lifetime
Event of a lifetime coming today
I waited so long that I guess I should stay
Event of a lifetime coming today

No dress rehearsal for the event of a lifetime
A flawed example of
What we could have made divine
A bunch of idiots
With loud voices and lots of time
No dress rehearsal for the event of a lifetime
