| I’ve been raised with a blindfold over my eyes
|
| I’ve been denied the right to think with my own mind
|
| I’ve been listening to their nonsense and rhymes
|
| Too young too soon too pretty to say anything right
|
| They say:
|
| How do you dare to speak
|
| When you don’t know the words of wisdom from the past?
|
| How do you dare to sing
|
| When you don’t know the melody of life?
|
| How do you dare to think
|
| When ministers lead the holy flock of lambs?
|
| Now do you understand what faith is all about?
|
| Don’t leave me now lost in the dark
|
| There’s a wind that constantly
|
| Throws us all down on our knees
|
| There are nightmares spreading darkness
|
| In our children hearts
|
| There’s a bed of thorns that is waiting for me
|
| Each and every night
|
| They’ve been praising divine ignorance and lies
|
| Clinging to the only hope of salvation in another life
|
| They were telling me that I needed a guide
|
| While they were blind and I was the one to see the light
|
| They say:
|
| Now will you listen
|
| To the tiny voice in the corner of your mind?
|
| Now will you pay attention
|
| To what’s written between the lines?
|
| Now do you see the shadow
|
| Patiently waiting for you behind the light?
|
| Now do you understand the truth
|
| Hidden beneath the lies?
|
| Don’t let the blind show you the light
|
| There’s a wind that constantly
|
| Throws us all down on our knees
|
| There are nightmares spreading darkness
|
| In our children hearts
|
| There’s a bed of thorns that is waiting for me
|
| Each and every night
|
| Why don’t you ever listen
|
| To the words of wisdom from my mouth?
|
| Why don’t you ever pay care
|
| About what’s standing out to my own eye?
|
| Why don’t you ever have a doubt
|
| About your old beliefs and silly signs?
|
| Now will you dare to face
|
| The consequences of your lies?
|
| There’s a wind that constantly
|
| Throws us all down on our knees
|
| There are nightmares spreading darkness
|
| In our children hearts
|
| There’s a bed of thorns that is waiting for me
|
| Each and every night |
