Chapter Three: Set the scene, set the stage

Sing these songs I wrote tonight, leave my conscience far behind. I won't be needing it tonight, I will leave it far behind. The stage is set for something so unmentionable and unconscionable. So dim the lights and I will scream my heart out on this stage so every girl in this place will want me more than you did. And I feel dishonest and awful as I am standing on this stage pretending I'm someone that I'm not. And this feels so, so wrong... but it's ok. I will pay for it when I am dead and gone.
The words I sing are all so beautiful, so pretty and so charismatic, and oh! So lush with metaphors. And I'm so glad the irony is not lost on me as I am turning into everything I hate. So dim the lights and I will sing soft songs of love, and loss, and summer girls I fell for. I will pick you out of the crowd and tell you that you're beautiful and special and mine. So dim the lights and I will sing.
