The Party's Over
Farewell to Fantasy: Unmasking the Bittersweet Symphony
Lyrics
The party's over, it's time to call it a day
The celebration or event has concluded, and it's time to end it.
They've burst your pretty balloon
Your expectations or happiness have been abruptly deflated or ruined.
And taken the moon away
The romantic or enchanting aspects have been taken away or spoiled.
It's time to wind up the masquerade
It's time to conclude the act or facade you've been putting on.
Just make your mind up
Make a decision; it's time to settle matters.
The piper must be paid
Consequences must be faced; debts or obligations need to be paid.
The party's over, the candles flicker and dim
The festivities have ended; the atmosphere is subdued.
You danced and dreamed through the night
You enjoyed and imagined throughout the night, particularly with a significant other.
It seemed to be right just being with him
It felt right just being in the company of that person.
Now you must wake up, all dreams must end
Reality must be acknowledged; all good things come to an end.
Take off your makeup, the party's over
Symbolic of returning to reality, removing the persona or facade.
It's all over, my friend
The celebration is completely finished; acknowledgment of the end.
The party's over, it's time to call it a day
Reiteration of the message: the event or festivity is concluded.
They've burst your pretty balloon
The joy or excitement has been abruptly spoiled or taken away.
And taken the moon away
A repetition of the idea that the enchanting elements are gone.
Now you must wake up, all dreams must end
Restating that dreams or fantasies have to be faced and ended.
Take off your makeup, the party's over
Emphasis on removing the artificial or external elements; accepting reality.
It's all over, my friend
Confirmation that everything related to the celebration is now concluded.
It's all over, my friend
Final confirmation that the event is completely finished.
