You're being nice to your neighbour
You talk about nothing over a fence
You mow the lawn exactly three centimeters
It's a friendly nightmare that never ends
Oh tell me are you dying on the inside
Cause I've seen it
The flatness in your eyes
But as dreams go by
You play your part
The perfect facade
The rotting heart
Until you leave on a dark rainy night, oh well
Did your life turn out a lullaby
Or a rollercoaster ride
Bursting out of the bubble
Living each day like it was the last
Riding off into the sunset
With your eyes fixed on the horizon
Forgetting about the past
Seem so easy
When you think about it
So difficult when you try to make it real
But as dreams go by
You play your part
The perfect facade
The rotting heart
Until you leave on a dark rainy night, oh well
Did your life turn out a lullaby
Or a rollercoaster ride
Oh tell me are you dying on the inside
Cause I've seen it
The sadness in your eyes
But as dreams go by
You play your part
The perfect facade
The rotting heart
Until you leave on a dark rainy night, oh well
Did your life turn out a lullaby
Did your life turn out a lullaby
Or a rollercoaster ride
