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...
