Fear of Freedom

歌詞

Falling back headlong To the start of it all You fell back screaming The original fall You fell to earth between Your mother's knees Bayoneted by the need to please Children - listen - shiver - listen Your story - my story - our story Old familiar carrion crow Junk impresario road show Watch out For the spiders of compulsion Watch out For the spinners of submission Trussed up and paralyzed They've got you where they want you They leave you there to die They've got you where they want you You fight for your life Held back by fear of falling You fight for your life Held back by fear of feeling You fight for your life Held back by fear of freedom Your only fear - the fear of freedom Why do you think that They are laughing? Because they've got you Where they want you They already got your number, Got your picture, stole it from you They already got your picture, Got your story, wrote the ending They already got your future, Got your children, stole them from you They gave no explanation, they gave No explanation, no explanation They already built the fences, Clipped your feathers, built your tethers They already got your rivers, Stole the pastures, stole them from you They already got your future, Got your children, stole them from you They gave no explanation, they gave No explanation, no explanation Why do you think that They are laughing? Because they've got you Where they want you They taught you fear of falling They taught you fear of feeling They taught you fear of freedom. FEAR OF FREEDOM FEAR OF FREEDOM FEAR OF FREEDOM FEAR OF FREEDOM
