The Show Must Go On
Queen [vkhp.net] Lyrics

Empty spaces what are we living for
Life seems meaningless with all the empty spaces around us. What is the purpose of our existence?

Abandoned places I guess we know the score
We have become so used to deserted or abandoned places that we now understand what it represents.

On and on, does anybody know what we are looking for
We keep on searching without finding what we are looking for, the endless quest for answers goes on and on.

Another hero, another mindless crime
Every time a hero emerges, there is always another mindless crime committed that overshadows any good that the hero has done.

Behind the curtain, in the pantomime
A reference to the theatre where things are not always what they seem, where people hide behind masks and illusions in order to play their part and entertain the audience.

Hold the line, does anybody want to take it anymore
People have reached their limit, they no longer want to hold on to anything anymore as everything seems to be falling apart.

The show must go on
No matter what happens, the performance must continue; it is important to keep moving forward.

Inside my heart is breaking
The performer's heart is breaking, but they have to continue with the show.

My make-up may be flaking
The performer's facade may be cracking, but they still have to maintain their appearance.

But my smile still stays on
Even though everything inside is falling apart, the performer still has to keep up the act, putting on a brave and happy face for the audience.

Whatever happens, I'll leave it all to chance
The performer has reached a point where they no longer have control over what happens, leaving everything up to fate and destiny.

Another heartache, another failed romance
The performer has experienced many heartbreaks and failed romances along the way, but they still have to carry on with their show and act the part.

On and on, does anybody know what we are living for?
We still haven't found the meaning of our existence, the question about why we are living still remains unanswered.

I guess I'm learning (I'm learning), I must be warmer now
The performer has learnt from their mistakes and is trying to become a better person with a warmer heart and attitude.

I'll soon be turning (turning, turning, turning), round the corner now
The performer is about to make a change and turn their life around for the better, finally heading in a new direction.

Outside the dawn is breaking
New beginnings are happening, and a new day is about to start.

But inside in the dark I'm aching to be free
The performer is still dealing with inner turmoil and pain, but is hoping to be free from it all soon.

My soul is painted like the wings of butterflies
The performer's soul is a beautiful thing, depicted as the colorful wings of a butterfly.

Fairytales of yesterday will grow but never die
Memories of past happy moments will always remain in the heart, seemingly growing with time, but never fading away.

I can fly my friends
The performer is able to overcome their struggles and rise above them, like a butterfly flying free.

I'll face it with a grin
The performer will face any challenge with a sense of humor and positivity.

I'm never giving in
The performer will never give up or give in, but instead will always strive to continue moving forward.

Ooh, I'll top the bill, I'll overkill
The performer is determined to be the best, even if it means going above and beyond what is required.

I have to find the will to carry on
The performer is searching for the strength and determination to keep going, even when times are tough.

On with the
Continuing with the show...

On with the show
The show must go on, and they have to keep performing.

The show must go on
No matter what happens or how hard things get, the show must always go on.
