After It Ends

After it ends
Pack the cordite
Wrap the cords right
Clean the cupboards bare

After it ends
Cut the phone lines
Strike the klieg lights
Kick out the fire door

But leave the banner there

After it ends
A moment of silence
All we left behind in
California

After it ends
I'm so hungry
Like I was just born
I'm still aching for life

So leave the banner there
