Who do you think you’re fooling?
Who do you think you are?
You run in all directions
but never go too far
Do you see your reflection
everywhere you go?
Do you hear applause
long after the show?
Yet show is on
anytime you want it to be
It’s always on
it’s the only thing that you believe
You need the warmth
of sunshine on your face
that you only feel
when you’re on stage
You hide behind your mask
controlling each emotion
thinking you’re so clever
with reasons for each motion
But you don’t even know
what it is that you believe in
because it changes every time
it changes every time
you fall in love
and yet even when you find
what you think you’re looking for
you run away and hide
you run away and hide
deep down inside
Don’t back away
Don’t say good-bye
Don’t you know there’s more to life
than what meets the eye?
Don’t you know that everyone
feels the way you do?
Did you think that it could only
happen to you?
Tragedies happen to those that you don’t know...
Loneliness is only in your soul
It’s the domain that you specialize in
You think that you’re the only one
the only one who thinks life isn’t fair
Hey don’t back away
don’t say good-bye
Don’t you know there’s more to life
than what meets the eye?
Don’t you know that life
is what you want it to be?
You must know there’s more to life
so much more that you have yet to see...
