It seems they haul their diamonds straight from the mine
You kept on digging brother, the well's run dry
You ran away from home, what did you find?
Is this your great escape that jug o' wine?
It's a shame, such a shame
It's only make believe
It's only make believe, my friend
It's only make believe, my friend
Verse: 2
Look at the starlings how they, they paint the sky
And how they need each other like you and I
Here in the swarm of bees outside their hive
Apart for everyone, all in good time
Pre-Chorus
We are the same, we are the same
It's only make believe
It's only make believe, my friend
It's only make believe, my friend
Verse: 3
The wolf is chasing us and it won't quit
Maybe the art of life's not becoming it
It's all a game, it's not a game
Be the flame, be the flame
It's only make believe
It's only make believe, my friend
It's only make believe
It's only make believe, my friend
It's only make believe
Outro
It's only make believe
It's only make believe
It's only make believe
It's only make believe
It's only make believe
