There are whispers in the air
That tell the stories of our wildest dreams
But leave us empty in despair
But on our own so everything is as it seems now
With the dark comes a harsher light
And you can't shake the shadow above
That's following you out into the night
Paint your face on with a smile
Say to them don't worry
Carry on just for a while
You get lost and hurry
Can you see now
That nothing's as it seems somehow
And everything you've ever lost
Must have a reason it is never found
Convince yourself you're better off
And you'll be fine
Or at least that's how it sounds like
When the dark comes so harsh to life
And you can't shake the shadow above
That's following you out into the night
Paint your face on with a smile
Say to them don't worry
Carry on just for a while
You get lost and hurry
Can you see it now
That nothing's as it seems somehow
When you don't know how much is enough
Or will get in the way
And you can only bear your soul
When you think that this is your day
When it's not and you get shot
You wish for someone else's luck
But you can't do nothing
So you must be doing something
Don't you know what it's like
To disappear from someone else's life so you can
Paint your face on with a smile say to them don't worry
Carry on just for a while you get lost and hurry
Can you see it now
Can you see it now
Can you see it now
That nothing's as it seems somehow
