You know what you are
Some superstar
That's never been anywhere

Me, I won't pretend to
Say I won't see through
Some phony standing up there

[Chorus:]
Close your eyes and hope that no one else will see
You'll realize exactly what you'll never be
This time the curtain's landing on you
Some day we're gonna see this come true

Back when we were friends
Down to the end
You promised we'd always be

Now it seems you've got a different dream
Thanks for including me
You spelled "we" so differently

[Chorus:]
Close your eyes and hope that no one else will see
You'll realize exactly what you'll never be
This time the curtain's landing on you
Some day we're gonna see this come true

[Chorus:]
Close your eyes and hope that no one else will see
You'll realize exactly what you'll never be
This time the curtain's landing on you
Some day we're gonna see this come true
