Better take a look
At my circle
Better take a look around
Tell all my friends
Better take a look
At the colors of the people

[Chorus]
Young without lovers
Old without friends

Better say a prayer
For the poor and unhealthy
Better sing a song
For those who don't care
Let the people have the right
To be different

[Chorus]

Life is an abstraction
And it tries to fool us all
And it's working so far it seems
Brother against brother
This world is such a mess
Behind the drawn curtains
So our thoughts can not be seen

Better shake the hand
Of the hated
Better hear the words
That don't seem clear
Better take a look around
At what we're doing

[Chorus]

Better take a look
At my circle
Better take a look around
Tell all of my friends
Let the people have the right
To be different

[Chorus: x3]
