Lyrics
You know I lose, you know I win
You know I call for the shape I'm in
It's just a game you see me play
Only real in the way
That I feel from day to day

Although the answer is not unknown
I'm searchin', searchin', and how I've grown
It's not all right to say goodbye
And the world on a string
Doesn't mean a thing

No, the world on a string
Doesn't mean a thing
(It's only real) in the way
That I feel from day to day
(No, the world) on a string
Doesn't mean a thing
(It's only real)
