So it's come to my attention
Some things you don't understand
Wandering through a cycle
When the power lay in your hand
Well there's an old expression
About how to play the game
Where Triumph and Disaster
Are imposters just the same
[Chorus:]
I understand
Do you understand
Understand?
So some they ask me
And this is what I say
The only thing worth having
Is what can't be taken away
[Chorus x2]
Well I can show you
Just what I mean
[x2]
Well it's my world
I see with blinding sight
Don't read from a Book
I decide what's wrong and right
So when all is evil
Don't leer into the sky
The power of creation
Is inside you and I
[Chorus x2]
