Lyrics

I've done this all before my friend
the game is nothing new
the winner stays until the end
and sees the show right through
the loser gets to laugh about the message that it sends
i've sat and watched the show right through
i know how this dream ends

The players change with every act
the scenery stays the same
the cast that played the night before
now referee the game
the score is written on the wall and they'll use that wall again
i know the notes i've heard them all
i know how this dream ends

It's not too late to run and hide
and crawl beneath your bed
there's places for a dream that died
but not inside your head
the shadows fade as memory does
and time is your best friend
i've sat and watched the show right through
i know how this dream ends
