Divine Comedy - The Certainty Of Chance lyrics

A butterfly flies through the forest rain

And turns the wind into a hurricane

I know that it will happen

'Cause I believe in the certainty of chance

A schoolboy yawns, sits back and hits return

While round the world computers crash and burn

I know that it will happen

'Cause I believe in the certainty of chance

And I believe

I can see it all so clearly now

You must go and I must set you free

'Cause only that will bring you back to me

I know that it will happen

Because I believe in the certainty of chance

Sometimes at night the darkness and silence weighs on me. Peace =

frightens me. Perhaps I fear it most of all. I feel it's only a facade, =

hiding the face of hell. I think of what's in store for my children =

tomorrow; "The world will be wonderful", they say; but from whose =

viewpoint? We need to live in a state of suspended animation, like a =

work of art; in a state of enchantment... detached. Detached.
