Tell me now if you came sneakin' up behind? Would you know me and see behind the smile? I can change like colors on a wall Hoping no one else will find what lies beneath it all I think I hide it all so well Steppin' out, everyone can see my face All the things I can't erase from my life, everybody knows Standin' out so you won't forget my name That's the way we play this game of life, everybody knows Lookin' through the crowd, I search for something else But every time I turn around, I run into myself Here I stand consumed with my surroundings Just another day of everybody looking I swore they'd never see me cry, you'll never see me cry Steppin' out, everyone can see my face All the things I can't erase from my life, everybody knows Standin' out so you won't forget my name That's the way we play this game of life, everybody knows You say I'll pay the price That's a chance that I'll take Though you may think I'm tellin' lies But I just call it gettin' by Steppin' out, everyone can see my face All the things I can't erase from my life, everybody knows Standin' out so you won't forget my name That's the way we play this game of life, everybody knows Everybody knows, I'm just barely getting by Everybody knows, I'm just barely getting by Everybody knows, I'm just barely getting by
