Lyrics: 
 
I was born into a scene 
of angriness and greed 
of dominance and persecution 
 
My mother was a queen 
my dad I've never seen 
I was never meant to be 
 
Now I spend my time 
looking all around 
For a man that's nowhere 
to be found 
until I find him 
I'm never gonna stop searching 
I'm gonna find my man 
gonna travel around 
 
CHORUS 
Cos I'm a wrathchild 
Well I'm a wrathchild 
Yeh I'm a wrathchild 
Oh I'm coming to get ya 
Oh yeah-eh-yeah 
 
Some say it shouldn't matter 
ain't nothing gonna alter 
the course of my destination 
 
But I know I've gotta find 
some serious peace of mind 
or I know I'll just go crazy 
 
CHORUS
