I was born when God was looking away
Life couldn't be this hard, I must be a mistake
When she left me I thought I'd seen my last day
I was so close to the end I was a wretch
Another wasted life pushed to the edge
Then I saw a piece of fabric tossed down the ledge
My name is David
I hope you will see
How the dreams of me and my friends
Shimmer so vividly
The light shined down on me from the factory
Before the lights were on but no one was home
It turned on above my head and set me free
I met a girl who made my life divine
Despicable and out of the assembly line
I'm a tin boy but she makes me shine
A new day with new posters on the wall
New stories to be told, come one, come all
There's smiles on the street but not inside
What brings our hearts together can't divide
I think I love her
But can she love me?
You know my heart breaks so easily
So scared to grow into what I cannot foresee
The pain, the hope
The sun, the rain
The dark, the light
The end, the start
My name is David
I hope you will see
How the dreams of me and my friends
Shimmer so vividly
