I've been trapped in the madness,
From the shadows of sadness
I laugh it away
I've been blind to the passion
While the whole world is flashing
I stash it away
While I'm singing of Freedom,
I'm trying to sell
What I never had
Hoping I'll be released from my own kind of hell
Cause I lost the key to my past

The show must go on
It seems like there's something I'm leaving behind
The show must go on
Cause the dreams that I'm having,
I'm having all the time
The show must go on

There will be no confessions,
Cause I'd only be guessing just where to begin
There's only one thing I'm knowing
This feeling ain't blowing
Away with the wind
And I'm tired of turning my back on myself
Throwing truth away
Let the fire burn down the front door to myself
And give me a season of play

The show must go on,
I just keep pretending to live for the game
The show must go on
I just keep on bending the rules to fit the pain
It's time for collecting
What I've been neglecting
It's gonna be a little strange
Cause one day I'll be gone,
And I'll be back in time(town?)
Nothing's gonna, nothing's gonna
Be the same

The show must go on,
And I just keep pretending to live for your game,
The show must go on,
I just keep on bending the rules to fit the pain
Put on the face,
Win every race,
I'm just so strong can't you see,
And I keep up the pace,
I won't leave a trace
Of
Still going on, still going on

The show must go on,
The show must go on
(fade out)
