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
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
Suffered he, so gallently
He said you have no idea what its like
What its 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
...that someone was different
...So hide your indifference
Away
What punishment is this?
And what did he do, lord
To receive all this
And was it a narrow miss
Well clench your muscles hard my son
And know what you must do
Just look him in the eye and say
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
Suffered he, so gallently
He said you have no idea what its like
What its 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
...that 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
