lyrics

at the heart of all the violence
is a character who could well prove
to be the best lead male or female
in this very harsh universe
if you look at the story
from the outside it would be
the most forbidden story in the world
but hey there I was, me

sorry I am late
i have to leave early
in fact I just left
a split second ago
so if you see me coming in
tell me I went home
no need for me to hang around
no need for me to hang around anymore

i didn’t know until I met other people
they didn’t see things the way I do
in fact I never met anyone
who saw things the way I do
but that necessarily doesn’t mean
that they are absolutely right
it only means that they are different
beauty lies in the difference

too bad society doesn’t work that way
the majority undeniable decided
that they have the power
as if there’s such thing as power

sorry I am late
i have to leave early
in fact I just left
a split second ago
so if you see me coming in
tell me I went home
no need for me to hang around
no need for me to hang around anymore
