The Party's Over
Farewell to Illusions
Lyrics
The party's over
The celebration or event has concluded.
It's time to call it a day
It's time to end the activities and festivities.
They've burst your pretty balloon
Your hopes or expectations have been shattered.
Taken the moon away
Your romantic illusions have been taken away.
It's time to wind up this masquerade
It's time to bring an end to this deceptive performance.
Just make your mind up, the piper must be paid
Make a decision; consequences must be faced.
The party's over
The celebration has truly ended.
The candles flicker and stir
The candles are fading, signaling the conclusion.
You danced and dreamed through the night
You enjoyed and fantasized throughout the night.
Seemed to be right, being with him
It felt right being in his company.
But you gotta wake up, wake up
A call to reality; it's time to wake up.
All dreams must end
All dreams eventually come to an end.
Take off your makeup, the party's over
Remove the facade, as the celebration is truly finished.
It's all over
Everything has concluded; it's all over.
Party's over
A repetition of the acknowledgment that the party is done.
Candles flicker and stir
The lights are diminishing, emphasizing the end.
You danced and dreamed through the night, yeah
Reflection on the joyful night you spent.
Seemed to be right, being with him
It seemed right being with him.
But you gotta wake up, wake up, wake up
A forceful reminder to face reality.
All dreams must end
All dreams have a finite duration.
Take off your makeup, the party's over
Symbolic removal of the artificial persona; the celebration is over.
It's all over, my friend
A conclusive statement that everything has ended.
Party's over
A reaffirmation that the party has indeed concluded.
