lyrics

If you were an orphan too, you would understand
You have always eaten out of someone else's hand
If I were to morph into an ambitious man
Living neck and neck in every trial that I ran

We're in a local race for a hiding place
In a silent chase we can never well erase
From any smiling face
And we're only ever picking up the pace

If you were adopted too, you would understand
If you've ever advocated someone else's brand
If I had a doctor to tell me how to stand
To abate this body's ever increasing reprimands

We're in a local race for a hiding place
In a silent chase we can never well erase
From any smiling face
And we're only ever picking up the pace
