lyrics

I was an actor in a play that you wrote
But nobody told me how the ending would go
I thought I was the hero and our love would not die

But heroes don’t fall, when their back’s to the wall
And they damn sure don’t cry

The footlights are shining and the crowd is so loud
When the curtain call comes I’m nowhere to be found

As the second act started you slipped from my grasp
I watched as you charmed them with every spell you cast
The kind of performance that lights up the stage

Pristine and profound, my heart hit the ground
As you floated away

The footlights are shining and the crowd is so loud
When the curtain call comes I’m nowhere to be found

The rain poured down
Filled the gutters up with shame
The playbill was soaked through
With no sign of my name

My best friend betrayed me
Stole all of my lines
Stood in the spotlight
While I lost my mind

The footlights are shining and the crowd is so loud
When the curtain call comes I’m nowhere to be found

I thought I was the hero and our love would not die

But heroes don’t fall when their back’s to the wall
And they damn sure don’t cry

about

Stewart Eastham Nashville, Tennessee

Stewart Eastham takes his music in bold new directions with his third full length solo album "The Great Silence". This release takes on the metaphysical realm exploring grand themes of life, death, and rebirth. While not technically a “concept” album, it feels like one with its repeating themes and motifs.

Eastham is based in Nashville, TN and was born and raised in rural Northern California.
