Joking Aside

i hate to complain, you know, but then again
i cannot pretend nothing's wrong,
looking at my present situation,
the act cannot last for long.
viewed from outside, these pursuits i might try
seem possessed of a certain allure.
now they're no longer a source of mystery,
my faith in them's more unsure.
now the time to play is over,
time to dispose of the lies,
time to show what's really on my mind.
yes, i'd like to turn you over
to see what's on your other side,
to see if the problem's in my mind, in my mind.
the choice is quite clear, to move on or stay here,
decision is harder to take,
reject what i have for something unstable could easily be a mistake
so i walk round the place with a smile on my face,
pretending the best that i can,
hoping to lose the inclination to desire what i can't understand.
and the time to play is over,
time to dispose of the lies,
time to show what's really on my mind.
yes, i'd like to turn you over
to see what's on your other side,
to see if the problem's in my mind, in my mind..
lalalalala...
now the time to play is over,
time to dispose of the lies,
time to show what's really on my mind,
yes, i'd like to turn you over
to see what's on your other side,
like to turn it over in my mind,
in my mind, in my mind, in my mind, in my mind..
