Don't leave me here alone
Look in my eyes - truth was better for everyone
Better than white lies
I believe in love - think about what happens above
I believe in truth - think about you
Tell me why we couldn't talk about it
Show me how wrong I am
So come on and cry out loud
To never lose you again
I am not the iron man and you really know me
I am not the iron man, show what I want to be
I am not the iron man, it's my way to protect
I am not the iron man, searching for respect
Day by day - not just when I lay - help me to pray
Day by day - not just when I lay - help me to pray
To find the right way, I need courage to say
Inside turning to outside
Not able to do it alone
It's gonna be alright to leave my one throne
I am not the iron man and you really know me
I am not the iron man, show what I want to be
I am not the iron man, it's my way to protect
I am not the iron man, searching for respect
I always like to learn, to do what is right
And then never return - never go from your side
Pink Elephant
My dearest child, not yet born, not even conceived
But I speak to you as if you are
'cause I fear the day you ask me about the sun, trees birds and bees
Trees, birds and bees
You'll want to know, what I did to stop it all
And I won't be able to hide my shame
I'll only tell you the tale of pink elephants
You can fly through the heavens on their backs
Chorus: Believe me, pink elephants can fly
Over the hills, the mountains and through the sky
They could, if they would, fly higher than high
But only the pink elephants can really fly
Forget the toys you used to play wars in your fantasy
And the videos where machines and monsters raged to rule
The desire for power and pleasure formed your world
And it will determine your child's future too
Chorus
Close your eyes and realize where you are
They've survived despite all we've destroyed
They are all my parents left me from better days
They're your friends and you can give them to your child
Look in my eyes - truth was better for everyone
Better than white lies
I believe in love - think about what happens above
I believe in truth - think about you
Tell me why we couldn't talk about it
Show me how wrong I am
So come on and cry out loud
To never lose you again
I am not the iron man and you really know me
I am not the iron man, show what I want to be
I am not the iron man, it's my way to protect
I am not the iron man, searching for respect
Day by day - not just when I lay - help me to pray
Day by day - not just when I lay - help me to pray
To find the right way, I need courage to say
Inside turning to outside
Not able to do it alone
It's gonna be alright to leave my one throne
I am not the iron man and you really know me
I am not the iron man, show what I want to be
I am not the iron man, it's my way to protect
I am not the iron man, searching for respect
I always like to learn, to do what is right
And then never return - never go from your side
