T.O.M.A.M.

Seeded by chance on a fertile ground
We were born too soon and grew up too fast
And the garden was lush when we came to light

Nettles in the grass, tares among the wheat
We were tough and fierce
And we loved the rain as much as the drought

The other monsters and me, the other monsters and me
Looking so cute and so twee and as light as light could be
The other monsters and me, the other monsters and me
We hadn't any idea of what the future would be

And we loved to stare at the tortured skies
Our hearts were hard and so tough
And proud enough to lie

We had no remorse and we had no hope
And we seldom made friends
Often shunned the few ones we had

Then we died one by one without any regret
Everything was said and done when we saw our sun set
Changing unfair, unstable

Often cruel and wrong headed
Passing from A to B morphing from this to that
Our 'this' had no face, our 'that' had no name

The other monsters and me, the other monsters and me
Kings of inconsistency and as light as light could be
The other monsters and me, the other monsters and me
We hadn't any idea of what the future would be

Of course, we these days wouldn't last
We had to live fast and we often heard our elders talk
About a forthcoming heaven on earth

And we hated their life in a fool's paradise
Then we died one by one without any regret
And we knew what it meant but would never repent

The other monsters and me, the other monsters and me
The other monsters and me, the other monsters and me
The other monsters and me, the other monsters and me
The other monsters and me, the other monsters and me
