Day Six: Childhood

Ayreon

    Continues after the ad

    [Agony] You're alone in your bedroom
    Hiding from the world, staring at the ceiling

    [Me] Mother said 'he'll be home soon'
    But he never was, and I knew how she was feeling

    [Fear] You always let him down; 'you'd never be like him'
    He'd always break you, never let you win
    No matter what you said, he'd always disagree
    You swore that one day you would be
    better than him...one day you'd win

    Continues after the ad

    [Agony] You're hiding out in the cellar
    Aching and ashamed, covering up the bruises

    [Me] And then he would tell her
    How I tripped and hurt my head, how I'd always be a loser

    [Fear] You always let him down; 'you'd never be like him'
    He'd always break you, never let you win
    No matter what you said, he'd always disagree
    You swore that one day you would be
    better than him...one day you'd win

    [Agony] You're all alone in your bedroom
    How could you learn to care, when nobody cares for you

    [Me] Mother said he'd be home soon
    But he never came, as for me...he didn't have to...
