The Show Must Go On
Queen＋Paul Rodgers Lyrics

Empty spaces, what are we living for
What is the purpose of our existence when everything seems so meaningless and empty?

Abandoned places, I guess we know the score
We are surrounded by abandoned and neglected places in the world, indicating that we have given up on certain things that are important.

On and on, does anybody know what we are looking for
We keep searching for something, but we don't even know what it is that we want to find.

Another hero, another mindless crime
We keep idolizing new heroes who end up committing senseless crimes.

Behind the curtain, in the pantomime
There is always something hidden behind the façade, like in a play where there is always something happening behind the scenes.

Hold the line, does anybody want to take it anymore
We are at our limit and cannot bear it anymore, does anyone have the strength to continue?

The show must go on
We must continue despite the challenges, and the world must persist.

Inside my heart is breaking
Despite the brave face I put on, I am feeling devastated inside.

My makeup may be flaking
My façade is falling apart.

But my smile still stays on
Even with everything falling apart, I still put on a smile and continue as if everything is okay.

Whatever happens, I'll leave it all to chance
Regardless of what happens, I'll leave it up to fate or destiny to take its course.

Another heartache, another failed romance
Another instance of heartbreak or failed love will soon be taking place in my life.

On and on, does anybody know what we are living for?
We keep going, but we are not entirely sure why we are doing so.

I guess I'm learning (I'm learning learning learning)
I suppose I am starting to realize or discover new things, perhaps related to love or life.

I must be warmer now
I have to become more emotionally invested or engaged now, perhaps in a relationship.

I'll soon be turning (turning turning turning)
I am about to experience some significant change in my life.

Round the corner now
This shift is imminent, perhaps even already happening.

Outside the dawn is breaking
The new day is dawning and bringing with it a new beginning.

But inside in the dark I'm aching to be free
Despite the external changes, internally, I still feel trapped and long to be free.

Yeah yeah, whoa wo oh oh
An expression of trying to cope as things become overwhelming.

My soul is painted like the wings of butterflies
My spirit is free and colorful, akin to the beauty of butterflies.

Fairy tales of yesterday will grow but never die
Childhood stories and fictions leave an indelible mark on our lives, and we carry them with us always.

I can fly, my friends
I have the freedom and ability to soar in life, with my closest companions by my side.

I'll face it with a grin
Regardless of what comes my way, I'll take it all in stride with a smile on my face.

I'm never giving in
I'll never surrender or give up, no matter how tough the situation becomes.

On, with the show
We must forge ahead and continue with life's performance, despite the hardships.

Ooh, I'll top the bill, I'll overkill
I'll exceed everyone's expectations and give an extraordinary performance, going above and beyond their wildest imaginations.

I have to find the will to carry on
I must find the determination and motivation to keep going, no matter how difficult the journey may be.
