*Many of them'll tell you not to be afraid Cause they haven't seen even a leaflet They don't know the story you've led And all their imagination drums up is velvet They'll tell you butterflies jump out cacoons Because while your life's been a horror Their's has all but been mere cartoons So they see hope in the reality mirror Contrary to the nightmares you've had All they know is but banquets and roses And blinded they can't see you're scarred That you've seen the right path but stuck like Moses They'll tell you life is a gamble which one wins or stumbles They can't see the storm in your life or hear the thunder rumbles*

*Many of them'll tell you not to be afraid Cause they haven't seen even a leaflet They don't know the story you've led And all their imagination drums up is velvet They'll tell you butterflies jump out cacoons Because while your life's been a horror Their's has all but been mere cartoons So they see hope in the reality mirror Contrary to the nightmares you've had All they know is but banquets and roses And blinded they can't see you're scarred That you've seen the right path but stuck like Moses They'll tell you life is a gamble which one wins or stumbles They can't see the storm in your life or hear the thunder rumbles*
