Meanwhile - Fool's Garden

You’ve changed the world around you

Is it better now?

No starving anymore

Hey, is it better now?

Your helpless little fingers

They’ve never been as calm as now

Your trembling is over

It’s better now

If there was a light in the dark

I would try to wake you up

Could I look into your eyes

While another baby cries

Forgive me

I see the children in the playfield

You had to leave your place

Your silent accusation

They took away your face

Your little life was over

Before it ever had begun

Your little wings were broken

You’ve never reached the sun

If there was a light in the dark

I would try to wake you up

Could I look into your eyes

Would you take my alibis

Forgive me

Ev’rybody knows it

Repression is the way

You’re not the child next door

You’re much too far away

But there’s no light in the dark

So I won’t try to wake you up

I couldn’t look into your eyes

In this world of alibis

Forgive me
