help me out,
said the minnow to the trout
i was lost and found
myself swimming in your mouth

oh, help me chief,
I´ve got plans for you and me
I swear upon this riverbed,
I´ll help you feel young again

oh, not your everyday circumstance
the hummingbird
taking coffee with the ants,
and I said

please, I know that we´re different
but we were one cell in the sea in the beginning
and what we´re made of was all the same once
we´re not that different after all
help me up, said the eagle to the duck
I´ve fallen from my nest so high above
oh, help me fly, I am too afraid to try
now saddled with a fear of heights
I´m praying you can set me right

oh, not your everyday circumstance
the elephant
sharing peanuts with the rats,
and I said

please, I know that we´re different
but we were one cell in the sea in the beginning
and what we´re made of was all the same once
we´re not that different after all

we are tied in history,
wide-connected like a family
we are tied in history,
wide-connected like a family, a family...

so please, I know that we´re different
but we were one cell in the sea in the beginning
and what we´re made of was all the same once
we´re not that different after all
