You know I lose
You know I win
You know I call for
The shape I'm in
It's just a game you
See me play
Only real in the way
That I feel
From day to day

Although the answer
Is not unknown
I'm searchin', searchin'
And how I've grown
It's not all right
To say goodbye
And the world on a string
Doesn't mean a thing

No, the world on a string
Doesn't mean a thing
It's only real in the way
That I feel from day to day
No, the world on a string
Doesn't mean a thing
