You've changed the world around you Is it better now? No starving anymore Hey,is it better now? Your helpless little fingers They've never been as calm as now Your trembling is over It's better now
If there was a light in the dark I would try to wake you up Could I look into your eyes While another baby cries Forgive me
I see the children in the playfield You had to leave your place Your silent accusation They took away your face Your little life was over before it ever had begun Your little wings were broken You've never reached the sun
If there was a light in the dark I would try to wake you up Could I look into your eyes Would you take my alibis Forgive me
Ev'rybody knows it Repression is the way You're not the child next door You're much too far away
But there's no light in the dark So I won't try to wake you up I couldn't look into your eyes In this world of alibis Forgive me
