   >         I stand on the stage,   
   >         there are no words.   
   >         The music surrounds me,   
   >         I have nothing left to say.   
   >         All I can speak of,   
   >         is sailing away,   
   >         putting it all away.   
   >         They surround me,   
   >         they play music.   
   >         I look into their eyes,   
   >         do they,   
   >         do they hold the magic?   
   >         All I can see is darkness,   
   >         there are no words.   
   >         Nothing but this joke,   
   >         I stand on the stage.   
   >         These words are nothing,   
   >         I am nothing.   
   >         Nothing here, nothing nothing.   
   >         No thing.   
   >         The source of laughter,   
   >         further down.   
   >         All I can speak of,   
   >         is this wish to fade away.
