one day i marvel at its beauty

and next i marvel at its pain

the world is such a big idea, such a big idea

and pain gets locked inside a child

and there's a child in us all

and that is such a big idea, such a big idea

and mama it's not just irrelevant nonsense

what are you hiding?

where is your conscience?

you expect me to follow

but i'm stronger than you

i'm ready to feel life

ready to find out

and still the beauty if i care

is always there where i can see

and it is only in ourselves

that we can choose to let it be

but now i'm grounded at the gate

in my attempt to save the world

and that is such a sad idea, such a sad idea

and mama it's not just irrelevant nonsense

what are you hiding?

where is your conscience?

you don't even know me

do you know how that feels?

it feels like i'm no one

it feels like i'm nothing

(musical interlude)

and mama it's not just irrelevant nonsense

what are you hiding?

where is your conscience?

you expect me to follow

but i'm stronger than you

i'm ready to feel life

ready to find out

ready to find out

not afraid to find out...
