So you thought I was a god
And now you know I am just a man
From the boy, from the pram,
But you made me a god in your minds
You made me what I am;
You stare now and mock from safe quarters
But you too could have been a god
If only you were not just men,
If only what I know now
I had known then;
You put me in a bubble
And expected me not to float
Of course I flew away,
Now I have landed with a bump
And yesterday became today;
I have made my mistakes
And I will be punished
You will treat me differently now,
If only I had known then
What I know now.
