Chorus (English)

What kind of life is that for a boy who looks like this?
Wanting to fit in this world, but it's just a wish
Pointing fingers, people whispering. Silhouette, of a lonely figure
Where can he go? Where can he hide?
Livin' inside, of his Vitiligo

Pointing fingers, people whispering.

While he 'lives' in are vitiligoO
