A wounded, sparrow

Timid and shy

A fallen deer, that's what they call me

But I'm an iron butterfly



A childish liar

A devilish bitch

I can be innocent and charming

And suddenly switch



But you've got to understand,

Understand, understand

That I've never belonged



I can be sweet

I can be wise

I've got everyone of you mirrored

In my deep, sad eyes



I know where you've been to

And who you're afraid to be

Cause nothing that is human

Is alien to me



I talk to strangers, strangers, strangers

One at a time



A wounded sparrow

Timid and shy

A fallen deer, that's what they call me

But I'm an iron butterfly



I know where you've been to

And who you're afraid to be

Cause nothing that is human

Is alien to me



I talk to strangers, strangers, strangers

One at a time
