I have seen the eyes of a child Innocent and shining A precious diamond but not hard enough In his eyes full of life I have seen the death A child The symbol of life The most precious thing His innocence trusted in life A hard game to play That breaks all his hopes And all he believes in They've stolen your smiles and dreams Desire to play and to laugh You look at the world, learn from the past Try to be a man In your childhood it was only a game Strange and weird It took away the light from your face A game you've overpaid A child The symbol of life The most precious thing His innocence trusted in life A hard game to play That breaks all his hopes And all he believes in They've stolen your smiles and dreams Desire to play and to laugh You look at the world, learn from the past Try to be a man You look at yourself through different eyes Scared from your past, facing reality You look at the world trying to be a man They've stolen your smiles and dreams Desire to play and to laugh You look at the world, learn from the past Try to be a man You look at yourself through different eyes Scared from your past, facing reality You look at the world trying to be a man
