Empty spaces 
What are we living for? 
Abandoned places 
I guess we know the score 
On and on, does anybody know 
what we are looking for? 

Another hero 
Another mindless crime 
Behind the curtain 
In the pantomime 
Hold the line, does anybody know 
what we are living for? 
 [bad word] 
The show must go on 
The show must go on 
Inside my heart is breaking 
My make-up may be flaking, 
but my smile still stays on 

Whatever happens 
I'll leave it all to chance 
Another heartache 
Another failed romance 
On and on, does anybody know 
what we are living for? 

I guess I'm learning 
I must be warmer now 
I'll soon be turning 
round the corner now 
Outside the dawn is breaking 
but inside, in the dark 
I'm aching to be free 
 [bad word] 

My soul is painted like the wings of 
butterflies 
Fairytales of yesterday will grow but never 
die 
I can fly, my friends 

The show must go on (yeah) 
The show must go on 
I'll face it with a grin 
I'm never giving in 
On with the show 

Ooh, I'll top the bill, I'll overkill 

I have to find the will to carry on 
(On with the show) 

The show must go on 
(go on, go on, go on...)
