Understand, you'll never be
What they expect
It's out of reach
You're not the kind
To reach that high
It's nothing like you had in mind
[Chorus:]
Another act
Another show you play
Realize, it will not make your problems go away
You cannot act your way out of your daily demise
Get real today
To hell, just go away
Understand, the road ahead
Is full of gaps
Gets harder yet
You're not the kind
To lead us blind
It's nothing like you had in mind
[Chorus x2]
What they expect
It's out of reach
You're not the kind
To reach that high
It's nothing like you had in mind
Another act
Another show you play
Realize, it will not make your problems go away
You cannot act your way out of your daily demise
Get real today
To hell, just go away
Is full of gaps
Gets harder yet
You're not the kind
To lead us blind
It's nothing like you had in mind

This song is about someone who has to hide a truth, with masks and acting. Everyday is an act for him, and he isn't a real person.
Clear concept IMO... and good song and lyrics :)
Like "jureleitor" already said, it's about someone hiding their real person. Someone tries to fit the expectations of others, but can't and needs to act like he is like that, but he isn't. Easy example is when someones homosexual and his family is religious and he tries to fit in the expectations but that doesn't help him. Every day is a fight.
