[Intro] I am telling you right now, they're showing all these reports Of people looting and doing all this weird stuff, and they aren't doing that But, people are desperate And they're trying to find food and water And you got some knuckleheads out there And they are taking advantage of this situation And they are doing some awful, awful things [Verse 1] Right now, this conversation's boring because Seems I've been losing faith in my beliefs since This world's been treating me like I'm a piece of shit Outside, the streets are filling up with hopeless souls Faces on my TV shows This world is not what it seems [Chorus] 'Cause this world is a fake A play upon a stage The actors take their place Then hide behind a face Yeah, this world is a fake Like players in a game We know that one man's loss Is someone else's gain Yeah, this world feels fake [Verse 2] I swear, I see it now, just like a vision For all of us and how we all must fit in It starts in the playground where they told me "We are free" Truth about humanity is one thing that they'll never teach [Chorus] 'Cause this world is a fake A play upon a stage The actors take their place Then hide behind a face Yeah, this world is a fake Like players in a game We know that one man's loss Is someone else's gain Yeah, this world feels fake [Guitar Solo] [Outro] And life without a meaning, oh-oh-oh Is one thing I've been dreaming of, oh-oh-oh To live without this feeling, oh-oh-oh I must compete for freedom like a rodent on a wheel Running on until we feel like we can't stop Oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh
