Karaoké The Right Regrets Smash

A writer has the empty page where he can set the scene

He puts the actors on the stage or on the movie screen

The characters all say the words

The writer wants to hear and then my friend

A happy end

But when the writer steps outside

That room where he is king

He can't control when lives collide

Or what the lovers sing

And so he hides behind his words

The one place he belongs and in black and white

He can rewrite the wrongs

Where he can find the strength to say

What those he loves should hear

And just erase mistakes she's made

Then make them disappear

Where he can change the plot so he's a hero not a louse

And when the curtain falls

There's not a dry

There's not a dry eye in the house eye in the house

A writer hopes to leave behind

A writer hopes to leave behind a work no one forgets a work no one forgets

And when he writes the end to find he has the right regrets

A writer has the empty page where he can use his pen

To mend his heart and try to start

Again
