The Hymn Lyrics

People say to me you cannot change

People say you always stay the same

If that were true I would leave this place

I would vanish from this place without a trace

I would leave you alone

Go build yourself a throne



You have said to me you cannot change

Coming from you that sounds very strange

Because you have changed in so many ways

That I have trouble recognizing you from day to day

And trouble is your thing

It takes away the sting



Someday these concerns may be your own

When you're lost and far away from home

But you won't have it any other way

Now you'll have to pay

Clever tricks so sly

But you cannot cry
