You're a projector
You must think I'm a screen
You keep projecting all your
False pictures on me
You're a projector, girl
You must think me a screen
But I am a camera
'Cause I can see
When I'm taking snapshots
Of what our world could be
And I see true colors
And I'm feeling
Such is life
And one more song is sung
C'est la vie
in the long run
So years go by
And so you think I'm a target
You wave your sharpened words at my heart
But I don't think you'll find it
And I recall the roles
And all the words were timed
You never heard a word I said
No, you just stood and read the lies
Such is life
In the whole world, nothing changes
C'est la vie
They're all just
You're a rejector
You must think this a dream
It always feels like
You're coming down on me
You're a pretender, girl
You're always putting up screens
Well I can see right through them
If you know what I mean
When I'm painting pictures
Of what our world might be
And I use true colors
And the colors bleed
Such is life
And one more song is sung
C'est la vie
in the long run
