I used to believe that no one else was alive
And all of the world was just a show inside my own mind
The dog's on a leash, tied to a pole, shaking above the snow
I try to pretend, I try to pretend, everything's just in my head

The choir's in line, belting its soul, over the dying crowd
Singing for love, their voices will soar, and disappear through the floor

I used to believe that no one else was alive
And all of the world was just a show inside my own mind
