| People say to me you cannot change | |
| People say you always stay the same | |
| If that were true, I would leave this place | |
| I would vanish from this place without a trace | |
| I would leave you alone | |
| Go build yourself a throne | |
| You have said to me you cannot change | |
| Coming from you, that sounds very strange | |
| Because you have changed in so many ways | |
| That I have trouble recognizing you from day to day | |
| And trouble is your thing | |
| It takes away the sting | |
| Someday these concerns may be your own | |
| When you're lost and far away from home | |
| But you won't have it any other way | |
| Now you'll have to pay | |
| Clever tricks so sly | |
| But you cannot cry |
