The Divine Comedy Lyrics
"The Certainty Of Chance"

A butterfly flies through the forest rain
And turns the wind into a hurricane, yeah
I know that it will happen
'Cause I believe in the certainty of chance
The certainty of chance
A schoolboy yawns, sits back, and hits return
While 'round the world, computers crash and burn, yeah
I know that it will happen
'Cause I believe in the certainty of chance
The certainty of chance
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, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh I know that it will happen
I'm sure that it must happen
Oh I know it's gonna happen
Because I believe in the certainty of chance
The certainty of chance
The certainty of chance

(Spoken)
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.
