The city lights begin to dim The dread is setting in And so her show begins Let out the noise She woos the crowd with all her grace The smile on her face She wants to have a taste You don’t have a choice I think you’ve given in Your thoughts are spiraling Your body’s trembling This is your reality The moment you locked eyes She had you hypnotized No use in fightin’ In a mind game Now you’re under a spell This isn’t going well You scream and shout But sorry, there ain’t no way out So make yourself at home You have no place to go Or so she says It’s just a mind game So won’t you let me take control To all those weary souls: You belong to me It’s time to finally let it go You’re searching for that saving grace Beyond these noisy gates There’s no happy ending Why not simply let it go Let it go Let it go Let it go Deep in the city was a flicker A faint but hopeful glimmer A reason left to fight “Take back the night” Familiar voices call your name “Your heart’s not hers to claim” You have to this game “Take back the night!” This madness has to stop Let’s take it from the top Hard to believe But this is all a fantasy It’s gonna take some time But one day you’ll be fine So let’s escape this hellish mind game So many twists and turns I know its got to hurt This life is rough But part of you is looking up So throw away that shame You’re not the one to blame Stand up and fight “It’s just a mind game” There’s nothing more the world can do Your only friend is you Let’s face the facts, my dear It’s time to let it go You tried your best, now rest your eyes Embrace the lonely nights Sit back, relax, unwind And please enjoy the show I’m sorry that I let you down I spent my whole life swimming just to drown I’ll make it up to you And lock myself away for good I’ll dive into the noise Wouldn’t that be nice? I think you’ve given in You’re finally getting it Ain’t it amazing? Welcome to reality The moment you locked eyes She had you hypnotized No use in fightin’ In her mind game So many twists and turns I know it’s got to hurt This life is rough Don’t be so quick to give it up We’ll take it day by day Repeat these words I say: Stand up and fight “It’s just a mind game” So won’t you let me take control To all those weary souls: You belong to me It’s time to finally let it go You’re searching for that saving grace Beyond these noisy gates There’s no happy ending Why not simply let it go There’s nothing more the world can do Your only friend is you Let’s face the facts, my dear It’s time to let it go You tried your best, now rest your eyes Embrace the lonely nights Sit back, relax, unwind And please enjoy the show
