In your glass menengerie you hide
you can't face the day kinda dead inside
down again from your ego high and mighty
where illusion plays in between the lies
and you can look so vain with your snakeskin eyes
anesthatising, moralising to survive
oh oh oh, ain't life funny

As the critics bite and the cameras flash
the wolves are hungry for you to crash
picking on every single word you say
they try to put down your still talking free
you wont't show your vunerability
to the paparazzi circling the prey
oh oh oh ain't life funny
how a little too much of truth can get you down

Because
And it's so damn lonely in a world so phoney
where the cheaters never know they've sinned
will your wings keep flying, through the lost horizon
has your spirit gone dancing in the wind

Shiny suit and tie life's a compromise
the lion roars an the jungles cries
fools you've suffered, damn them all to hell
as the game exposed they can feel your sting
as the weakest falls to the power king
the just don't understand you've taken everything
oh oh oh, ain't life funny
how reality creeps in without a sound

Because
And it's so damn lonely in a world so phoney
where the cheaters never know they've sinned
will your wings keep glying, through the lost horizon
has your spirit gone dancing in the wind
