Lie awake in bed at night

And think about your life

Do you want to be different, different?

Try to let go of the truth

The balance of your youth

Cause this is just a game

It's a beautiful lie

It's a perfect denial

Such a beautiful lie to believe in

So beautiful, beautiful

That makes me

[Verse 2]

It's time to forget about the past

To wash away what happened last

Hide behind an empty face

Don't have too much to say

Cause this is just a game

It's a beautiful lie

It's a perfect denial

Such a beautiful lie to believe in

So beautiful, beautiful

That makes me
