lyrics

Here we go again
Same story different set
Everything looks so perfect
Everything looks alright
Listen up to this anthem of life

Looking behind every corner
searching for an answer
with the doubt that it won't come

Expecting faces to be seen
expecting words to believe in,
you know that they won't come

Do you feel unsatisfied
for all the time you've lost
trying to please someone

All it's left is to decide
who's really on your side
this could be the time for you

You better believe
the things that you see
'Cos whatever they say
It's not what they mean
And what can I say
I need you to stay
But it doesn't depend on me

'Cos you know that I would like to
you know I would do something
but I just can't figure this out

Why can't it be different
It can't stay the same
take the situation
make it your way

Stop to all this nonsense
hold to a few of your best friends
this is what you've become
stop with faces to be seen
or with words to believe in
now it's your turn to start

You still feel unsatisfied
for all the time you've lost
trying to please someone

Now it's your turn to roll the dice
to shut their mouths, you'll be surprised
this must be the time for you

You better believe
the things that you see
'Cos whatever they say
It's not what they mean
And what can I say
I need you to stay
But it doesn't depend on me

'Cos you know that I would like to
you know I would do something
but I just can't figure this out
