2nd verse: same/igual 
Hey, Im the king of thins I've always dispised 
Im the gingerbread man who got eaten alive 
I'm half baked, I'm fake! 
but see I got hotels on Park Place and Boardwalk 
And two hundred bucks 
I pass go, but oh! Life's taken control 
Have I won monoploy to forfeit my soul?

E|------6---- 
The man who's lost all of his  
A                                  E         A 
masks of pretension. He's got two faces left His is the  
             F#           A 
one that he hides On the left behind that smile.. 
 
Last verse/último estrofe - same/igual 
 
Hiding tears and fear, that burns like an engine, It drives him away 
>From the ones that he loves Mike was right: " Hey Mike! were one in the 
same; we're the faceless combatants in the loneliest game" Ah but say, 
I'll wave as I'm driving by, With that smirk in my eye, yelling "Hey! 
I'm somthing man, check me out!"
