Born a normal child, but the dream it didn't last long
What did they say?
And my God why does he hold on
Someone do something, don't turn in disgust
Look him in the eyes
Can he hear us - can he hear us
Calling back to my friend
Won't you write me again, won't you say this is the end
Eight years gone by
Wanted to scream but he could not cry
Suffer he so gallantly
He says, you have no idea what it's like, what it's like to be me
I'm not saying that I do
I just wish that something was different
Saying that I do
I just wish that something was different
Saying that I do
I just wish that something was different
Yeah, someone was different
So hide your indifference away
What punishment is this?
What did he do Lord to receive all this
And was it a narrow miss?
Clench your muscles hard my son
Well do what you must do
Just look him in the eyes
Can he hear us
Can he hear us
Calling back to my friend
Won't you write me again, won't you say this is the end
Eight years gone by
Wanted to scream but he could not cry
Suffer he so gallantly
He said, you have no idea what it's like, what it's like to be me
I'm not saying that I do
I just wish that something was different
Saying that I do
I just wish that something was different
Saying that I do
I just wish that something was different
Yeah, someone was different
So hide your indifference away...
...yes I hear you I have all ideas in the world
Away yes I hear you I have all ideas in the world
Away yes I hear you I have all ideas in the world
Away yes I hear you I have all ideas in the world
Eight years gone by
Wanted to scream but he could not cry
Suffer he so gallantly
He said, you have no idea what it's like, what it's like to be me
I'm not saying that I do
I just wish that something was different
Saying that I do
I just wish that something was different
Saying that I do
I just wish that something was different
Yeah, someone was different
So hide your indifference away...
...yes I hear you I have all ideas in the world
Away yes I hear you I have all ideas in the world
Away yes I hear you I have all ideas in the world
Away yes I hear you I have all ideas in the world
