I didn't walk within the lines
When they thought I was crazy
God knows I was acting in good faith
I'm a bit scatterbrained
Eyes to the sky, head in the clouds
Each day has its own pain
In the name of the father
In the name of cash, in the name of the worst
Seller of frustration, lying
Behind which lie to curl up
The chance to do it all again, yeah
Heaven and earth to show them
What we can do, yeah
Proud of you, proud of us
I prefer looking ahead
Not looking back, no
Despite all they might've said, yeah
They take us for crazies
But who do you think you are
Between you and us we've already said it all
They're not the same folks
We'll have to work every day
Because the road is long, yeah
Everything comes right on time
How can I tell you, you're gonna shine
The solution's inside you
Don't let people humiliate you
If you listen to them you'll end up stark crazy
Why watch the other and envy him
The road isn't the same for everyone
Sometimes you gotta know how to swerve
And if life gives me time
And if time lets me
I'll open every door
I won't leave them closed, no
I won't leave them closed
I won't shut my eyes
Gentlemen, I'm not like you
And if life gives me the chance
I'll move heaven and earth
What we can do, yeah
Proud of you, proud of us
I prefer looking ahead
Not looking back, no
Go tell them that we're proud
Despite all they might've said, yeah
They take us for crazies
Who do you think you are
Between you and us we've already said it all
They're not the same folks
And if life gives me the chance
I'll move heaven and earth
What we can do, yeah
Proud of you, proud of us
I prefer looking ahead
Not looking back, no
Go tell them that we're proud
Despite all they might've said, yeah
They take us for crazies
But who do you think you are
Between you and us we've already said it all
They're not the same folks
