Lyrics | ||
KIDDING OURSELVES We're all looking for something that may not be real Truth is the fear we keep concealed We forget to predict with our map of the past Lie to ourselves with abandon this time will last. (Chorus) We've all been fools We've all felt used We can't deny We're just kidding ourselves Did anyone tell us this life was fair We'll gladly accept a lot more than our share Ignore all our flaws - find someone to blame Point at a mirror the image is always the same (Chorus) (Bridge) We kid ourselves We know we lie We hurt each other We know we'll get by We see ourselves with our own eyes We can't see through Our own disguise We can work on our souls be better by far We choose to mark time - be less than we are End of the day we're surprised it goes by so fast Look at the sky and marvel at something so vast (Chorus) |
