Lyrics

The Mother takes the Prodigy to a Psychiatrist for assessment. He performs a diagnostic interview and battery of tests on the Prodigy
I know it's hard to find the words
But tell me all about your world
Do you struggle to adapt?
Do you feel detached?
It seems I'm always out of place
Like some alien machine
I never know how I should be
Or what to feel, or what is real
Can you help us reach our son?
Can we put our faith in you?
Can you help him overcome?
There is brilliance shining through!
Do you see it too?
Let's talk about your dreams
Can you tell me what you've seen
Can you describe the way you feel?
Do you feel anything at all?
I see things that don't belong
In this four-dimensional world
There is so much more beyond
More to unveil, more to reveal
Can you help us reach our son?
Can we put our faith in you?
Can you help him overcome?
There is magic shining through
[Mother] Can you help us reach our son?
[Prodigy] I, I need a future I can build
[Mother] Can you tell us what do to?
[Prodigy] Give me a role that I can fulfill
[Mother] Can we help him rise above?
[Prodigy] I know I've got something to give
[Mother and Prodigy] A reason to live!
