Numbing the Pain

Dreams torn to pieces, broken like glass

Hope faded away, withered like leaves

Not knowing is blessing, ignorance the only protection

Nothing is numbing my pain

The fragments of my faith

Became the blade in my hand

Just darkness my eyes see

Pushed me to the end of all dead-end-streets

A curse - cannot lie to myself

I'm doomed - cannot silence my heart

Fear is the tool, conformity our medicine

How can I smile as this age dies, like everybody else

Dancing around the fire, that burns this world

Cannot bend down, I would just break

I hate myself for playing their game

Parents poison their children, never teach them to question

If it only wasn't for this certainty in me

I am a giant in their tiny world
