Ayreon - Day Six: Childhood lyrics

[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 then him...one day you'd win

[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 then 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...
