No, you're wrong, you can't even imagine,
Things aren't how they seem
Like an animal, struggling to survive any way he can
When living is always limited
And he's not saying much at all
But neither are we
At least he tries
At most our life's a luxury
Wear his skin [as a suit]
Would you feel misplaced?
Like nobody knows your name
Feel distant or erased?
Not worthy to communicate?
And if you think you had a bad day,
Just consider this,
Every day is hard for him, and he's still more content than you,
he still smiles,
(That's) My handicap..
Maybe he was put here to help us realize
Because it surely wasn't for his benefit,
He doesn't feel impulsed to impress with some disguise
Maybe that's what makes him different,
Not intricate
There's no reason to feel sorry
he only feels empathy,
Because he knows we take all of our steps for granted
There's no reason to laugh at him,
He's just laughing back at you
There's a reason he was put here
and he's provided the clue
(But he's not saying much...)
He sings:
"There's nothing you can say that's gonna bring me down,
There's nothing you can do to ever bring me down,
I'm unbreakable,
This chain is set in place,
and nothing can break it." |
