The Game

I love fairy-tales about shoes that dance on their own About prince and princess in glittering dresses on festivals I love sunsets when the world seems so sweet Everything inside me is longing for a happy end Why can't they let me be This is me Do I harm anyone I love to live in harmony and die for trashy melodies But this ain't life it's all about this game Everybody shows and everybody sees Everybody dares and everybody fears In the end we're all the same Everybody knows and everybody feels Everybody hurts and everybody heals In the end we're all the same I love to stand still, feel the wind in my hair Taste a raindrop spy out a bookshop and observe the people reading there Why can't they let me be This is me Do I harm anyone I love to live in harmony and die for trashy melodies But this ain't life it's all about this game Everybody shows everybody sees everybody dares and everybody fears In the end we're all the same Everybody knows and everybody feels Everybody hurts and everybody heals In the end we're all the same I whistle during shopping and weep when there's no way out From time to time I even laugh out loud Everybody shows and everybody sees Everybody dares and everybody fears In the end we're all the same Everybody knows and everybody feels Everybody hurts and everybody heals In the end we're all the same Everybody shows and everybody sees Everybody dares and everybody fears In the end we're all the same Everybody knows and everybody feels Everybody hurts and everybody heals In the end we're all the same Oh I don't like this game Everybody, oh everybody knows, everybody knows
