Nothing As It Seems

acting through my daily routine
playing someone i used to be
cameras anywhere you name it
people they don't understand it's tearing me apart at the seams
that's what makes me wanna sing
something i can never be
that's the way i wanna feel
like nothing's the way that it seems
maybe it's too unreal
if it don't make any difference now
maybe i just can't feel if i'll ever make it through anyhow
and that's what makes me wanna sing
something i could never be
and now nothing is the way it seems
got this feeling we just made it
so strong i can hardly taste it
good times how they come and they go
smells like someone i used to know
pouring over me like a wave
that's what makes me wanna sing
if language is only a dance and image is everything
but you're only gonna give us a glance
maybe it hurts too bad
and if it don't make any difference at all
maybe it's all i have and i'll never make it through to the wall
and that's what makes me wanna sing
somewhere i could never be
cos tonight you know nothing is the way it seems
oh yeah, oh yeah
ooo nothing is the way it seems
