[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
