lyrics

I bet you compare yourself all day,
with some ideal, with what others look
and what they have to say.
You know your mind is hardly ever at ease,
always some kind of restlessness that won't cease.

I bet you compare the world all day,
with some ideal, with opinions, with what you think it should be.
You are so blind to the storms in your heart,
thinking mankind is different from what you are.

You know it's a mystery to me why none of you
knows about his disease or tries to find some cure.
I guess you're somewhat used to pain by now,
but I still think some in this crowd,
at least some of you feel there's something wrong right now.

Do you feel there's something wrong right now?
I really wish these songs could save just one soul.
Don't you feel dissatisfied deep down?
I bet you crave to hear what I found out.

(You are comparing yourself all the time with somebody else.
So gradually you are destroying your own capacity, your own vitality, your own strength. You are merely imitating, right?)
