What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
The painter he died alone
2
Decades later they built his throne
3
Proclaiming his great worth
4
While he was buried under all that earth
5
Would have been nice to hear
6
While he was upright and breathing air
7
I heard someone joke
8
We've gone as far as we can go
9
No longer a difference "˜tween
10
Those who watch and those being seen
11
Fear i was born too late
12
No one left to hear what i say
13
There's no one left in the audience.
14
Everybody wants to be in the show.
15
So what am i doing here?
16
I don't know.
17
There's a soiree out back
18
Full of art school undergrads
19
They make great party hats
20
But not a one understands math
21
Each does a one-man play
22
Streaming live in 50 states
23
The critics now work from home
24
No longer paid to sing along
25
I miss their companionship
26
A steady voice amongst the frantic
27
Just wanted art that's true
28
Just want to talk about the blues
29
There's no one left in the audience.
30
Everybody wants to be in the show.
31
So what am i doing here?
32
I don't know.
33
Had a picture in my mind
34
But it's gotten harder over time
35
To hold on to that dream
36
Can't deny what i see
37
And there's no sadder sight
38
Than the man who can't call it a night
