A Chapter Must Be Closed

See your old clothes on some junky's back
Watch your furniture get up & disappear
Have pity on those who gotta suffer from their own hand
& watch what they have get up & disappear

A chapter must be closed
A chapter must be closed
It can't go on & on & on & on & on & on
You gotta shut it down
To start it up again
It can't go on & on & on & on & on & on

I'm not gonna rise up like a phoenix from the fire
& fly away
Or hold hands with the whole wide world
On some endless sunny day
Why can't people accept it may just be the way
The way it always was
They're so wrapped up in fantasy

Oh, a chapter must be closed
A chapter must be closed
It can't go on & on & on & on & on & on
You gotta shut it down
To start it up again
Can't go on & on & on & on & on & on
