Decalogue - Stockholm Monsters

There doesn’t seem to be a choice

There doesn’t seem to be a way

You remember when you were young

But now the years have made you older

What do you say to the child

Who only wants some time to play?

You only wanted to be someone

But life has made a fool of you

Everything you ever did

Just went through your stretching fingers

Everything just seems to fade

And all my thoughts just turn to hate

Try to realize all the time

But when I do, I just get nowhere

While I watch things still go wrong

There doesn’t seem much I can do

All you ever say to them

Is watch yourself, please don’t fall over

But if you just take a look

You’d know the same has happened now

You never meant to take that way

But that’s the way it always goes

Try to realize all the time

But when I do, I just get nowhere

But when I do, I follow you
