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…
