[Terapist]
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?
[Prodigy]
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
[Mother]
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?
[Therapist]
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?
[Prodigy]
I see things that don't belong
In this four dimensional world
There is so much more beyond
More to unveil, more to reveal
[Mother]
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 to do?
[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!
