London, Hollywood

Those faded dreams haunting the city

Folktale of the hills

Many brainwashed so terribly quickly

Once upon a show

Only now I have seen slowly past beyond the surface

Might be wondering why has life given me such purpose

If I wake up to this dawn

Will there be strength to carry on?

Was I sleeping for too long?

Will I go back and move on?

Where should I steer the wheel?

If everything's surreal?

Only time will reveal

If this show could be real

Dazzled by deception that I have been sold

I thought every singlе glitter was made of gold

It was a long time ago

It was oncе upon a show

I drew the canvas in my head

As the spotlight glows

At the podium of the opera

That's how it goes

It was a long time ago

It was once upon a show

Watching their ovation been given by fake applause

Can't help to be thinking

Was all this time worth the cause?

Once upon a show

Through a beam of light

I once have claimed a different vision

Misled by the sight

Sometimes I wonder that decision

If I wake up to this dawn

Will there be strength to carry on?

Was I sleeping for too long?

Will I go back and move on?

Where should I steer the wheel?

If everything's surreal?

Only time will reveal

If this show could be real

Dazzled by deception that I have been sold

I thought every single glitter was made of gold

It was a long time ago

It was once upon a show

I drew the canvas in my head

As the spotlight glows

At the podium of the opera

That's how it goes

It was a long time ago

It was once upon a show

Dazzled by deception that I have been sold

I thought every single glitter was made of gold

It was a long time ago

It was once upon a show

I drew the canvas in my head

As the spotlight glows

At the podium of the opera

That's how it goes

It was a long time ago

It was once, it was once

It was once upon a show
