Walking down the same worn paths again 
Do you fly? 
Do you? I'd correct my own way 
If I could 
If I should 
Should do 
I will play the same old notes again 
Do you write? 
Do you? I'd compose a new chord 
If I could 
If I should 
I should do 
All the other children 
Love to sing along 
But it's my song 
I'm supposed to go back 
To the first key 
But I won't 
I'll change it 
Do I have to play by all the rules? 
Well I won't 
I'm changing 
Guess I'll have to stick out 
From the rest "He's not right, break him" 
Guess I'll have to try to be the best "That sounds good, we'll take him" 
All the other children 
Want to sing along 
But it's my song 
I'll compose a new song 
From my heart 
Do you like? 
Do you? I'll compose a new song 
For the world 
Will you sing? 
Will you? 
I'll breathe my soul 
Into the sun 
He's the light, burning 
And I'll shine down on everyone 
Set your hearts a-turning 
All your little children 
They will sing along 
To my song
