Unicorn in a Swamp - Demo in Nepal

I was taught to be nice and kind
'If you have a good heart, you will work out fine'
'You can draw people and friends that will be true'

So all the years went by
I turned into this optimistic, idealistic happy disco-ball
Who only shines when others shine

But then it turns out the world is all but kind
The villains don't hide in the shadows in a downtown alleyway
The charity and the money are just for show

And everybody is lazy
Walking 'round throwing all the things and the love away like
Caring is not a cool thing anymore
But here I am still

Looking at the good sides, making beliefs and
Holding onto memories that've been long gone
Thinking everyone still has their innocence in their hearts
So, I tolerate the pain as if it could change them
And read a little less into their intentions
Just to find out I'm a unicorn in a swamp

I was told to be less concerned
'You can't change how the world is rotten'
'You can't change the way he's fucked up even if you're true'

But all the years went by
I still didn't learn my lesson and chose to stay
As if they won't torture their prey anyway

So then it turns out
I'm the one to blame 'cause apparently
Grown-ups don't walk around without being voracious
The handshaking and greeting is just for show

And people should be selfish
'You gotta take it all and have more to be a success like
Being grateful isn't cool anymore
But here I am still

Looking at the good sides, making beliefs and
Holding onto memories that've been long gone
Thinking everyone still has their innocence in their hearts
So, I tolerate the pain as if it could change them
And read a little less into their intentions
Just to find out I'm a unicorn in a swamp
Just to find out I'm a unicorn in a swamp
