Play

Audience is in darkness, staring at the stage Where actors elegantly act under the spotlight Hoping love conquers evil, the prince takes courage They long for this dream to come true overnight They’re captured by sadness then lifted up with joy From a monster, the prince saves the princess They know that this monstrous world is ugly They see that a light shines in the darkness After the play ends, the curtain comes down The audience is once again in darkness After all the struggles, nothing has changed It was a mere dream they glimpsed in the theatre
