Meanwhile Lyrics

Meanwhile lyrics

You've changed the world around you, Is it better now?

No starving anymore, 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 never reach 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 alibies -- 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 alibies

Forgive me
