The Wheelers - All the World Is a Stage Lyrics


You say you’ve seen it all

Your eyes’ve absorbed too much

You’re haunted by the images

The images from your past

You say you know it all

You know the final outcome

You have been here before

It’s all the same as it was last time

All the people you know

All the faces you saw

Want to make you believe

You’re part of one big show

You’ve been on autopilot

Stuck in the role you’ve been forced to play

It’s time to dig deeper

And find yourself under the disguise you wear

All the tears and the scars

All the fear in the eyes

Covered with fake smiles

And a make-up made of lies

All the world is a stage

We play when we face the lights

Waiting for the applause

As the curtain falls

All the world is a stage

But sleeping alone in the night

You dream of a different place

Where you don’t have to hide your face

Where you can be real

Where you can be yourself

Without fear

You can be real

You can be yourself

Do not fear
