I've been waiting, contemplating Dreaming of the day that I could make my move And it's cruel Now I, I'm rolling the dice And playing the game But nobody told me that everything's changed And it's changed You can play the game but you can't make the rules It's cruel, so cruel If all the world's the stage, then we all play the fool It's cruel, so cruel Snakes and ladders Nothing matters Haunted by the words I never said to you And it's cruel Now I, I've played my turn And turned to the skies And I saw that look burning in your eyes How could I be so blind? You can play the game but you can't make the rules It's cruel, so cruel If all the world's the stage then we all play the fool It's cruel, so cruel You can play the game but you can't make the rules It's cruel, so cruel If all the world's the stage, then we all play the fool It's cruel, so cruel
