[Verse 1]
Told a lie about yourself
It felt so good to deceive
To pull the wool over everyone
Told them whatever they'd believe

[Verse 2]
You missed the train and now you're gone (Aren't you?)
To join the faceless everyone
'Cause you're a name on a phone list I've crossed off
Pushed you back to square one

[Chorus]
But if I fall then I'll stand back up
Learning how to run is half the fun
Somehow I know that there must be something better
No one's gonna have power over me

[Verse 3]
There's a sign above the door (Over you)
Says you have to hang your coat
You're wanting me to pay the doorman with my soul
I think that I'd be moving on

[Chorus]
Your witch's web is hanging over my sleep
One half lies awake, the other in a dream
Somehow I know that there must be something better
No one's gonna have power over me
And if I fall then I'll stand back up
Learning how to run is half the fun
Somehow I know that there must be something better
No one's gonna have power over me
