Into Darkness - Ten

A cinematic masterpiece

In ashes on the mantelpiece

A luminescence time could never fade

A critically acclaimed release

An Oscar nominated piece

In which I had a cameo to play

From the cradle, as we grow, love is born

Where the memories we find

On the lost and lonely side, hide

Like the angels cast on snow-covered lawns

So the treasuries of life

Guide the way every day… oh, baby

Into darkness, movie starlets

Spin as the celluloid finds a frame

Click of the reels as they spool and wind

Into darkness, screen lit starkness

Check if the rushes look fine today

Scene after scene ticking time away

History’s made as we cut to the fade and then die

High

So turn the house lights down again

The scenes we screen are feature length

The life and times, now scripted and complete

I know that each PG to rated 18

Is worth more now than it’s ever been

For trailers never look the same to me

From the cradle, as we grow, love is born

Where the memories we find

On the lost and lonely side, hide

Like the angels cast on snow-covered lawns

So the treasuries of life

Guide the way every day… oh, baby

Into darkness, movie starlets

Spin as the celluloid finds a frame

Click of the reels as they spool and wind

Into darkness, screen lit starkness

Check if the rushes look fine today

Scene after scene ticking time away

History’s made as we cut to the fade and then die

Into darkness, movie starlets
