My imagination wants to see The vivid colours of reality There's a place out there beyond my grasp A revolution in a looking glass I've got to get this problem off my chest I'm sick and tired of being second best I'll rearrange my credibility A fund raiser for a restless sea Don't ever doubt me What's come over you Won't you forgive me What are you gonna do? Don't ever doubt me What's come over you Won't you forgive me What are you gonna do What will you do I can't contain what's inside my head I'm losing words that I must have read Do you remember the time we spent It seems that we were the main event Have you a reason to behave like this Maybe you need a psychoanalyst? If you keep pushing me out of the door For sure, You'll never see me again No one to talk to What am I gonna do You're never there Right when I need you Give me a cause Give me a reason For your applause I'll commit treason And in my mind I know I'm right It's the same thing every night You're not to blame so don't you cry You don't need me so hurt my pride In all that time I know we tried Line by line and side by side And still I pray that we'll get by But it don't seem real and I don't know why And in my mind I know I'm right It's the same thing every night You're not to blame so don't you cry You don't need me so hurt my pride And in my mind I know I'm right It's the same thing every night Why do you cry you're not to blame When will you change this sad refrain This sad refrain Oh when will you change this sad refrain.
