Yes, it is
It's just an illusion
It's obvious he's got things on his mind
Living out a total misconception
Living out somebody else's dream
He starts writing a letter
Just another cliche
Everything is passe
Close-up of the man at the window
I'm gonna do tomorrow
Yes, it is
And disillusioned by the promises they made
Will shatter his illusions
It's such a wasted life
Life is just a cliche
Reality, a false perception
What I did yesterday
To another galaxy, deep in space
He's just a man who's reached the end of his rope
It's such a dull routine, somebody cut this scene
A little man looks up at the sky
Days drift into days
And experience unimaginable pleasures
Moonlight over the high-rise
Tucked up, safely away
Seems so passe
Everything you hear and say
But morning comes and soon the realities of life
It's a pity that it ended up this way
To make it perfectly clear
Everything's a cliche
At the end of the day
People so blase
Expressing his doubts and his fears
Yes, it is
Without any conclusion
Life just slips away
And the cliches of the world will bring him down
To a planet where a man can live out his fantasies
But still he's waiting for a change
Like an actor on a movie screen
The little man is asleep in his bed
See the sunlight over the motorway
The little man, with anger in his eyes
Yes, it is
Just an illusion
He shakes his head, pulls down the blind
Life just slips away
It's such a boring cliche
An uneventful end to a wasted day
Days drift into days
Yes, it is
Everything's a cliche
In a world, feels so lonely and afraid
Live life, day to day
It's just an illusion
Just an illusion
Yes, it is
In his dreams he's taken away by alien beings
Looking at the street down below
