lyrics

EXCEPT FOR HIMSELF
Words and music - Elisa Montaldo

Wakin’ up early in the morning
sayin’ hello to a brand new day
everything seems so good
and you know that you deserve it
after living what you’ve lived
and after you’ve cried
all your tears and all your pains arevrepaid

tryin’ hard to fit in the present
giving life lessons to everyone
don’t you see the suffering
that is hidden in other hearts?
like a book with too many pages
you forgot how it started
and you keep on thinking this is who you are


Nothing can change someone who is sure to be the broken
be the wounded
be the only person in the world,
in this mad world who knows what it’s the best for me, for us, for them…..except for himself

Even if time is passing, you stay locked into your big home
with a rope around your dreams drowning sunny days into a dark room
maybe if you take a look, you’ll see that reality
is not as bad as you always believed

Nothing can change someone who is sure to be the right one
be the good one
be the only person in the world,
in this mad world who knows what it’s the best for me, for us, for them…..


Will you change your mind, will you try to change your mind?
will you understand that you’re not always right
will you let someone show you things that you don’t see
you will be suprised!


…in this mad world who knows what it’s the best for me, for us, for them…except for himself
