Lyrics

I hate to complain, you know
But then again, I cannot pretend nothing's wrong
Looking at my present situation
The act cannot last for long
Viewed from outside these pursuits I might try
Seem possessed of a certain allure
Now they're no longer a source of mystery
My faith in them's more unsure
Now the time to play is over
Time to dispose of the lies
Time to show what's really on my mind
Yes, I'd like to turn you over
To see what's on your other side
To see if the problem's in my mind
In my mind
The choice is quite clear, to move on or stay here?
Decision is harder to take
Reject what I have for something unstable
Could easily be a mistake
So I walk round the place with a smile on my face
Pretending the best that I can
Hoping to lose the inclination
To desire what I can't understand
And the time to play is over
Time to dispose of the lies
Time to show what's really on my mind
Yes, I'd like to turn you over
To see what's on your other side
To see if the problem's in my mind
In my mind
Lalalalala lalalalala
Lalalalala lalalalala
Now the time to play is over
Time to dispose of the lies
Time to show what's really on my mind
Yes, I'd like to turn you over
To see what's on your other side
Like to turn it over in my mind
In my mind
In my mind
In my mind
In my mind
