Make Believe
Unveiling the Illusions: The Art of Make Believe by The Graduate
Lyrics
You can say anything you like
You have the freedom to express yourself verbally.
No one is listening
No one is paying attention or taking heed to what you say.
You can fool everyone outright
You can deceive or mislead others without them realizing.
No one's paying attention
People are not actively observing or noticing your actions.
So wrong but how can you lose
Despite being morally wrong, there seems to be no consequence.
When nobody tells the truth
In a context where truth is suppressed or hidden.
They're talking through their teeth
People are insincere, speaking dishonestly.
All make believe
Everything around is fabricated, an illusion.
Our heads are spinning around
A sense of disorientation or confusion is prevalent.
We don't like it underneath the ground
Discomfort with a hidden or concealed reality.
Yeah, our heads are spinning around
Continued disorientation or confusion.
No one's dancing, no one hears a sound
An atmosphere where nobody is engaging or responsive.
Late night and we're feeling bad
During a late hour, there is a negative emotional state.
Only feeling with our hands
Emotionally connecting only through physical touch.
And we catch up with the wakin' world
Reconnecting with reality after being in a dreamlike state.
All make believe
Similar to line 9, emphasizing the pervasive illusion.
Our heads are spinning around
Reiteration of the disorienting experience.
We don't like it underneath the ground
Expressing discomfort with a hidden truth.
Yeah, our heads are spinning around
Continued disorientation in a concealed reality.
No one's dancing, no one hears a sound
No one is engaged or responsive in this distorted reality.
Our heads are spinning around
Repetition of the disorienting experience.
We don't like it underneath the ground
Continued discomfort with a concealed truth.
Yeah, our heads are spinning around
Emphasizing the ongoing disorientation.
No one's dancing, no one hears a sound
No one is dancing or participating in this distorted reality.
We don't like it underneath the ground
Disapproval of being in a hidden or concealed reality.
Our heads are spinning around
Reiteration of the disorienting experience.
We don't like it underneath the ground
Reiterating discomfort with a hidden truth.
Yeah, our heads are spinning around
Continued disorientation in this concealed reality.
No one's dancing, no one hears a sound
No one is engaged or responsive in this distorted reality.
Our heads are spinning around
Repetition of the disorienting experience.
We don't like it underneath the ground
Expressing discomfort with a hidden truth.
Yeah, our heads are spinning around
Emphasizing the ongoing disorientation.
No one's dancing, no one hears a sound
No one is dancing or participating in this distorted reality.
We don't like it underneath the ground
Strong disapproval of being in a hidden or concealed reality.
