Child
What's this life you don't talk about?
To me, it's a mystery
I wish you'd scream and shout

Child
Are you happy inside?
Is there madness I don't see?
And tell me why you hide

Child
Will you drop your disguise?
In this whirl of confusion
What makes you so wise?

Child
The codes that you speak
On days when you're cornered
Are you strong or are you weak?

You spend your life
Like a shadow in the shade
You dance around
So nervously
And when I see
The hurt in your eyes
I wish you could transcend it
And be free

Child
If there's one truth to this world
It's that we both see the same stars at night
The same stars at night
