Taught To Be Afraid
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Past - remember the sun
Sea - shining bright and warm
Dreams - I never forgot
I’ve lost my memory
Smell - acrid and strong
Love - like father and son
I tried to take that path
Fade - first twinkling then gone
Like sand through my hands
I’m punching another hole in my ticket
I was a child in a world full of men
Sailing a barren sea
Trying to picture my own reflection
Lost in the deep
Why was I always the second best?
I was forced to forget what I loved
Turning my dreams into fears
Hundreds of steps in the wake of the old man
Faded pain, no tears
Why walk straight down this grey brick road?
An insidious question often strikes me
Day after day
Is there a life before death?
My faith has vanished
All my passions lost to despair
I crave for your light
A hope to embrace
A life lacking depth
I open my eyes but it’s in vain
I’m blind
I’m tired of fighting
My demons grow
I’m going crazy
My desires surrounded by canvas and colours
All buried beneath years of soil
An insidious question often strikes me
Day after day
Is there a life before death?
My faith has vanished
All my passions lost to despair
I crave for your light
A hope to embrace
