I never understood the game
I didn't even wanna play
Nobody cares until you're famous
I'd rather be anonymous
I've already got more than enough
We all watch the world get stranger
Is life just some weird dream?

Twenty seconds in a primetime slot
Going viral for some dumb TikTok
There's nothing really nothing less I want
If I'm honest
I'm out here searching trying to find my gold
I'll never fit into your perfect mould
Won't be appearing on your late night shows
If I'm honest I'd be honoured but I don't want it

And maybe the answer isn't fame
What if we found a better way
A language of love to last a lifetime
But too many people want that drug
Is it real? or ever enough?
I keep on watching from the sidelines
Is life just some weird dream

Twenty seconds in a primetime slot
Or going viral for some dumb TikTok
There's nothing really nothing less I want
If I'm honest
I'm out here searching trying to find my gold
I'll never fit into your perfect mould
Won't be appearing on your late night shows
If I'm honest I'd be honoured but I don't want it

Wasting so much of our time just wondering what it's like
On the other side
But I think maybe there is nothing bigger than the lie
Of the other side

Is life just some weird dream
As crazy as it seems

It's hard for me to keep believing everything I see
When nothing seems to make any sense to me
Can't you see we keep believing everything they say
When half of it seems like insanity

Well, I never understood the game
I didn't even wanna play
Cos nobody cares until you're famous
