Once I was there   Standing outside   Looking in   Beside my window   Smiling face, shattering      It’s an old man’s pride   That climbs over understanding   It wasn’t your child   That I was hurting      And I turn my back to the world   Well I don’t care   What can I say if I see you all as dead   Under the dying sun it comes   Weaving fear but I have none   I know that mushroom cloud   Won’t come very near      What do you have to believe in   And all the poison you breathe in   The crystal heart shatters within      Once I was there   Standing outside   Moving in   Inside my window   Crying face, shattering      Take all that you have   And leave the rest now for today   It’s the old folks’ sign   That took away your chastity
