Desdemona, help yourself I hear you mourning at the dawn Desdemona, ask which side Of all this lying are you on Did you build yourself a runway? Did you tell yourself tomorrow? Did you cry? And are you dressed in hesitation When you tell yourself that everything's alright? 'Cause I see a distance in your smile And what your Mondays have become Could be the rest of your life Desdemona, you're not dead yet No it's not wrong If you want everything in life under the sun Under the sun Under the sun Desdemona, you're in love Do not forget about yourself Desdemona, bring the people That you love inside your hell 'Cause you are younger in the eyes of those who see you Please forget about the time Throw yourself out on these brave and empty branches In the winter waiting high ♪ Everybody's out there killing time But I will be damned to let you stand here killing mine Don't you know we're gonna change a whole world the day We stop waiting on the world to change ♪ Desdemona, we are not so very different Do you see? At the moment braver still Than what our minds let us believe Even the walls the will surround you Somehow steady by your very own hands I don't know just how to change you All I know is how to tell you that you can ♪ 'Cause I'll never tell you how to live But you keep on telling me That's just the way it is Desdemona, more than anything I know Never tell yourself that's just the way it goes I know it goes But what do I know?
