Fake

Right now this conversation's boring me cos
Seems i've been losing faith in my beliefs since
This world's been treating me like I'm a piece of shit
Outside the streets are filling up with hopeless (souls)
Faces on my tv shows
This world is not what it seems
Cos this world is a fake
A play upon a stage
The Actors take their place
Then hide behind a face
Yeah this world is a face
Like players in a game
We know that one man's loss
Is someone else's gain
I swear I see it know just like a vision
For all of us and how we all must fit in
it starts in the playground where they told me
we are free
(the) truth about humanity is one thing that they'll never teach
Cos this world is a fake
A play upon a stage
The Actors take their place
Then hide behind a face
Yeah this world is a face
Like players in a game
We know that one man's loss
Is someone else's gain
Yeah this world feels fake
And life without a meaning
Is one thing we've been dreaming of
To live without this feeling
I must compete for freedom
Like a rodent on a wheel
Running on until we feel
Like we can't stop
Oooo
Oooo
Oooo
