[Verse 1]
I've finally realised, I've opened my mind up to the fact
The way I really live is just a put on it's only an act
[Chorus]
I was happy with the game that we all played
But it ended up the same, I'm fading away
[Verse 2]
Too many people wanted the clown to fall on his back
When the cards were down, I should have known to shuffle the pack
[Chours]
I was happy with the game that we all played
But it ended up the same, I'm fading away
[Chorus]
I was happy with the game that we all played
But it ended up the same, I'm fading away
Yes, it ended up the same, I'm going today
[Verse 3]
I've finally realised, I've opened my mind up to the fact
The way I really live is just a put on it's only an act
Yes, it's only an act, yes it's only an act
