French 79 - You Always Say

Copied!

Heard you've been unwell
Going down on dangerous edges
Way out of line
Heard you've been under the weather
Acting stranger and stranger
Pushing everything too far

You always say
Life is just a game
Playing is ok
Until you meet a wall
You always say
Trying is in vain
When most of us will fail
Ain't nothing new

There's nowhere, nowhere else to go
No escape, no denial, hmm
(Where's your courage)
You're not really holding on
Pretending you don't care
But you're just as insecure as us

Leave it all behind
Can you see that ray of light beaming at us
Though it looks like the end of the world
No one said we're giving up
You always say
Life is just a game
Playing is ok
Until you lose
But mirrors don't lie
There's no other side
The answers are hiding
Deep within you

You always say
Life is just a game
Playing is ok
Until you lose
