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
CHORUS: 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
CHORUS: 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 But 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
CHORUS: 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
