Showbiz Lyrics

Controlling my feelings far too long
Controlling my feelings far too long
Controlling my feelings far too long
Controlling my feelings far too long
Forcing our darkest souls to unfold
Forcing our darkest souls to unfold
And pushing us into self destruction
And pushing us into self destruction

They make me
Make me dream your dreams
They make me
Make me scream your screams

Trying to please you far too long
Trying to please you far too long
Visions of greed you wallow
Visions of greed you wallow
Visions of greed you wallow
Visions of greed you wallow

They make me
Make me dream your dreams
They make me
Make me scream your screams

Controlling my feelings far too long
Controlling my feelings far too long
Forcing our darkest souls to unfold
Forcing our darkest souls to unfold
And pushing us into self destruction
And pushing us into self destruction

They make me
Make me dream your dreams
They make me
Make me scream your screams

What is the Meaning of Showbiz?

Ever found yourself tangled in a web woven by society's expectations? This masterpiece by Muse dives headfirst into the angst-ridden pool of manipulation and pressure. The singer's repeated insistence that they’ve been "controlling my feelings far too long" portrays someone who's been stuffing emotions like trying to fit an elephant in a closet. There’s a dark unraveling, a forced showcase of one's hidden depths, while external forces tug at their strings, making them dream and scream dreams that aren't even theirs! It's a critique of the madness of constantly striving to fit into someone else's mold, reduced to a puppet in the grand show of life. This is an anthem for those tired of the masquerade who want to smash the stage and run for their lives. Who knew existential freedom could sound so intense and electrifying? Bravo, Muse, for the sonic therapy session!
