Why did you steal the matches | |
From the one room motel | |
Once they gave you answers | |
Now they give you hell | |
They will never understand | |
They wonder where did they go wrong | |
How could you be so selfish | |
Why can't you get along | |
And as you pray in your darkness | |
For wings to set you free | |
You are bound to your silent legacy | |
You've seen it in the movies | |
And you've heard it on the street | |
Craving the affection | |
Your blood is full of heat | |
They don't listen to your reasons | |
As original as sin | |
Deny all that you feel | |
And they will bring you home again | |
And as you pray in your darkness | |
For wings to set you free | |
You are bound to your silent legacy | |
Your body is alive | |
But no one told you what you'd feel | |
The empty aching hours | |
Trying to conceal | |
The natural progression | |
Is the coming of your age | |
But they cover it with shame | |
And turn it into rage | |
And as you pray in your darkness | |
For wings to set you free | |
You are bound to your silent legacy | |
You are digging for the answers | |
Until your fingers bleed | |
To satisfy the hunger | |
To satiate the need | |
They feed you on the guilt | |
To keep you humble keep you low | |
Some man and myth they made up | |
A thousand years ago | |
And as you pray in your darkness | |
For wings to set you free | |
You are bound to your silent legacy | |
Mothers tell your children | |
Be quick you must be strong | |
Life is full of wonder | |
Love is never wrong | |
Remember how they taught you | |
How much of it was fear | |
Refuse to hand it down | |
The legacy stops here | |
Oh my child |
