She is with swollen buttons, to no end
Soon will ring the bells of birth, sudden and brazen
Oh my God
I wonder if I could be more than just a foster - (I wonder if I could be the) - father figure
What am I supposed to be?
I was sure of you and me
This sounds more like forgery
I have a case of monomania
Coz nothing could be so perfect, no
The ocean capsule has just unwrapped itself
Strength should be your vade mecum
Coz life will become harder and bitter and murder
Don't you dare give up
(We can not always be everything, I’m sure, to everyone
We can not always do everything, I’m sure, for everyone)
I guess you'd be more than just skin and bones
Just one look is enough to convince us
Hush now sleep now
