It's six o'clock a.m.,
he has a splitting headache.
He looks for cherry jam
but the glass is empty.
Oh, he hates getting up, working hard
and facing his life.
Oh, damned everyday life.
He feels as if he's in prison…no!
Reduce your worried times,
please forget your load and daily crimes.
Keep your hopeful side
and your future will be great and bright.
See the happy birds
and the poor deserving friendly words.
Use your both strong hands
to create a world that has a chance.
Time's quickly passing by,
he must be concentrated.
His life depends on a lie:
Only THEY'RE the ruler.
He feels so bottomless, powerless
and meaningless.
He's been looking for the truth.
He's really not the chained up victim!
The change begins in your mind!
