"Serious" lyrics

It's funny when the night ends and the day begins to break
And you realize that your whole life has been a fake

It's funny when the men you wanted were never the men you got
Cause truth is a word you often mentioned but didn't use a lot

After twenty odd years
Twenty odd years
You should think about your fire
You should think about your fears

And get serious with your life
Serious with your dreams
And don't fake, don't fake
Get serious with your lies
Get serious with your world
And don't fake, don't fake
Get serious with your life
Serious with your dreams
And don't fake, don't fake
Get serious with your lies
Get serious with your world
And don't fake, don't fake

It's funny when everything starts with the falling of hair
It can lead you into thinking or it can drive you to despair

After twenty odd years
Twenty odd years
You should think about your fire
You should think about your fears

And get serious with your life
Serious with your dreams
And don't fake, don't fake
Get serious with your lies
Get serious with your world
And don't fake, don't fake
Get serious with your life
Serious with your dreams
And don't fake, don't fake
Get serious with your lies
Get serious with your world
And don't fake, don't fake

I used to think that the world was mine
But that was only for a short time

Get serious with your life
Serious with your dreams
And don't fake, don't fake
Get serious with your lies
Get serious with your world
And don't fake, don't fake
Get serious with your life
Serious with your dreams
And don't fake, don't fake
Get serious with your lies
Get serious with your world
And don't fake, don't fake

Get serious
Get serious
Get serious
Get serious
