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]
