In the days when everything was real
You could tell how everyone did feel
A little frown or a hiding something grin
You could tell the ones who just had sinned
It seems to me that times have changed
The people know they act deranged
On the stage, again
It’s time to pretend
Tell me how you feel
Just tell me, are you real?
'Cause, I can’t tell
Are you on the stage, again?
A bit reserved or just a little shy
(Just a little shy)
Is how I feel when I kiss a girl goodbye
(Kiss a girl goodbye)
And then there’s sometimes, when I’m feelin' just ok She knocks me down just to make her day
Seems to me that something’s wrong
The people now have to act strong
On the stage, again
It’s time to pretend
Tell me how you feel
Just tell me, are you real?
'Cause, I can’t tell
Are you on the stage, again?
Are you on the stage, again?
Now, I know why I am stuck with all this pain
Is there a chance that I could live my life in vane?
The words you speak, I cannot tell if they are true
The world it crashes down on me What should I do?
Am I through?
On the stage, again
It’s time to pretend
Tell me how you feel
Just tell me, are you real?
'Cause, I can’t tell
Are you on the stage, again?
Now, I know why I am stuck with all this pain
Is there a chance that I could live my life in vane?
The words you speak, I cannot tell if they are true
The world it crashes down on me What should I do?
It’s down on me, what should I do?
Am I through?
On the stage, again
It’s time to pretend
Tell me how you feel
Just tell me, are you real?
'Cause, I can’t tell
Are you on the stage, again?
Are you on the stage, again?
Are you on the stage, again?
On the stage, again
Are you on the stage, again?
On the stage, again
Are you on the stage, again?
On the stage, again?
Are you on the stage, again?
On the stage, again
Are you on the stage, again?
Are you on the stage, again?
Are you on the stage, again?
In the days when everything was real
(Are you on the stage, again?)
You could tell how everyone did feel
