You know what you are
Some superstar
That's never been anywhere
Me, I won't pretend to
Say I don't see through
Some phoney standing up there

Chorus:
Close your eyes and hope that no one else will see
Realize, exactly what you'll never be
This time, the curtain's landing on you
Some day, I'm going to see this come true

Back when, when we were friends
Now till the end
You promised we'd always be
Now it seems you've got a different dream
Thanks for including me
You spell "we" so differently

Close your eyes and hope that no one else will see
Realize, exactly what you'll never be
This time, the curtain's landing on you
Some day, I'm going to see this come true

(guitar solo)

Close your eyes and hope that no one else will see
Realize, exactly what you'll never be
This time, the curtain's landing on you
Some day, I'm going to see this come true
