השיר המקורי, מתוך אלבום הבכורה להיטי הזהב ששינו את העולם (חלק א'):

So vibrant outside
and black from within
The sun is up high
the soul's a cloudy bin
Whatever you see, it's just make-believe
I may look alive
but I'm dead underneath

[Chorus]
Life is beautiful, a fabulous tale
Life is beautiful, I'm ugly as hell

So pure where you glance
and stale where you don't
It looks like a feather
I'm actually stoned
Whatever you see, I mask it with smoke
The façade is so serious, the inside's a joke

[Chorus]

Enlightened outside
and bleak where I'm pinned
The thoughts are kind
the actions – obscene
I'm not Mr. White, let alone Mrs. Yoke
I seem to inhale, but I actually choke

[Chorus]

I'm inside-out, like sweaters
She knots are now undone
So naked when I stand here
See all my stitches shine

[Chorus]
