Shadowbox Puppets - Make Your Stand Lyrics

Just the other day I had a dream
That I was walking in the park
And a man approached and said
"Let's talk for a while"
I lied and said that I was running late
But I knew that he knew
So I sat next to him
And he said with a smile, "Make your stand!"
So, make your stand!

I didn't know what he had meant
Until he opened up the book
Sweat poured down
To see all that I had failed
To my surprise, the pages
They just gave me a blank stare
This was all or nothing
I'd done to prove my, my avail
So, make your stand!

After he had said those words
I turned around and he was gone
A pen lie where he sat
His gift of goodbye
It was then and there I had
Understood the story I must write
A grain of the truth from an unknown guy

So, make your stand!
