When I was a kid, my father used to say "I had dreams when I was your age" I don't get it, why do people change? I swear I will never be that way [Chorus] Staring at the sun, I see a brighter day Should I, should I look away? Staring at the sun, I feel its warming rays Should I, should I walk away? In the beginning was a golden ray God's power, but to my dismay "We're only human," that's what people say Still I search for a way [Chorus] There but for the grace of God go I I pretend I'm not afraid to die If there's a heaven, then I will apply Devil heat, you better take a ride I'm not crazy, but I believe in butterflies Dreams are dashed, should be a big surprise And life is my favourite nursery rhyme I'm not afraid of the big bad wolf [Chorus]
