When the world is your back Garden,
When your life is just a game,
And you hear the words inside of you,
Telling you to take the strain,

Play the Stage, Yeah! Gotta play the stage.....

Time is just a format,
Just an essence, just a claim,
Feel the Strain inside of you,
Don't let it make you go insane,

You know the way to rid of it,
And you can't let it take it's toll,
But if you close the opening,
Then you can take control,

Gotta play the Stage, Yeah!
Play through it all again,
Gotta make your way, Yeah!
Through the hurt and the pain,
Gotta play the Stage,
Gotta play the Stage,

Is religion what it used to be,
Full of wars and stuff like that,
Holiness is forgotten for now,
But there may be a time,
When all these things come to light again.

Is it right that the world should fight?
Why indeed is the world the way it is?

Gotta play the Stage, Yeah!
Play through it all again,
Gotta make your way, Yeah!
Cos it's never to late,
Gotta play the Stage,
Gotta play the Stage,

When the world is your back Garden,
When your life is just a game,
And you hear the words inside of you,
Saying life has gone to shame........
