The Certainty Of Chance - Lyrics by Divine Comedy


Lyrics
A butterfly flies through the forest rain
And turns the wind into a hurricane
I know that it will happen'
Cause I believe in the certainty of chance
A schoolboy yawns, sits back and hits return
While round the world computers crash and burn
I know that it will happen'
Cause I believe in the certainty of chance
And I believe
I can see it all so clearly now
You must go and I must set you free'
Cause only that will bring you back to me
I know that it will happen
Because I believe in the certainty of chance
Sometimes at night the darkness and silence weighs on me. Peace =frightens me. Perhaps I fear it most of all. I feel it's only a facade, =hiding the face of hell. I think of what's in store for my children =tomorrow; "
The world will be wonderful", they say; but from whose =viewpoint? We need to live in a state of suspended animation, like a =work of art; in a state of enchantment... detached. Detached.
