Different Indeed

Different

I'm so different to you
You're so different to me

Different in the way we think
Different in the way we see

Like measuring the thunder of a Lancaster Bomber
Against the beating wings of a Bumble Bee

They try to make us all believe in the same way
They try to make us all see what they want us to see

The inherent flaw of our nature is always here
The inherent flaw is that we all think differently

Power controls our life like the tides of the sea
But power will never control our minds indefinitely 

Controlling the way we think, the way we love, the way we feel

Would lead humanity down the path of insanity.
