When you're lost in the dark, undermined
And every situation makes its mark know, I won't hide
No pedestal's too high for me to climb
One day I'll reach the top with you
And they'll shoot me down for looking at the view

It's a sign of the times, I know there's a reason for doubt
I just hope you're happy now

You don't get lost in the dark when you shine
And each day, their reflections get them back, so I won't try
I'm sick of keeping track of all their lies
For all my crimes, I've paid my due
And they shoot me down for looking at the view

And it's a sign of the times, I know there's a reason for doubt
I just hope you're happy now you've got your way
I can't believe there isn't more to say
Than it's a sign of the times, I know there's a reason for doubt
I just hope you're happy now

Before you turn the knife, won't you cut me down?
'Cause this feeling won't run out on me
And I don't know what you want from me
