|
The crowd came to silence |
|
The spotlights are shining |
|
A tale has to be told |
|
In any age |
|
All the world is a stage |
|
A play will now begin |
|
There once was a child |
|
With a dream in his mind |
|
And a thousand things to learn |
|
But with each passing day |
|
His childhood sleeps away |
|
How soon the first act ends |
|
All the dreams that we have |
|
Are lost along the way |
|
Victims of real life |
|
Now the child is a boy |
|
And new dreams have evolved |
|
He strives to make them real |
|
Not the fear in his heart |
|
Nor a past full of pain |
|
Will take away his hope |
|
But how cruel life is |
|
And although he resists |
|
New problems will appear |
|
So he'll loose one more chance |
|
Time destroys all his plans |
|
The second act is done |
|
All the dreams that we have |
|
Are lost along the way |
|
Victims of real life |
|
We are looking |
|
For the meaning of our lives |
|
But our faults remain the same |
|
And the truth |
|
Will be distant from our hearts |
|
Where our dreams will never end |
|
But our fate is in command |
|
Now the boy is a man |
|
Though his visions remain |
|
He knows they have no chance |
|
A heart full of hate |
|
All his hope driven away |
|
Life's worn down his defence |
|
How many lives |
|
In the world born and die |
|
In disillusionment |
|
Not allowed to have dreams |
|
And one day make'em real |
|
This tale will never end |
|
All the dreams that we have |
|
Are lost along the way |
|
Victims of real life |
|
We are looking |
|
For the meaning of our lives |
|
But our faults remain the same |
|
And the truth |
|
Will be distant from our hearts |
|
Where our dreams will never... |
|
We are looking |
|
For the meaning of our lives |
|
But our faults remain the same |
|
And the truth |
|
Will be distant from our hearts |
|
Where our dreams will never end |
|
But our fate is in command |
|
But our fate is in command |
|
But our fate is in command |
