Simple one
It's time to have a little fun
Please don't cry or make a fuss
I promise you I'm someone you can trust

Silence now
You don't need to make a sound
I'll keep you bound and underground
Put you down if you don't shut your mouth

Children should
Be seen and
Not heard
A lesson
Of what my
Self is worth
2 bits to
The ferry-
Man if I
Cry out loud
Lost voices
Are never
Found

Always tell the truth
Follow the Golden Rule
Do what they've done to you
Speak when you're spoken to

Endure the abuse
Swallow your silver spoon
Give what's been given to you
Speak when I tell you to

You won't let me say
Anything
Anything
Anything
Once was happy now a
Broken thing
Broken thing
Broken thing

I can't help but cry
I can't help but lie
I want to die

I'M NOTHING INSIDE

Sleepy one
It's time to have a little fun
If you lie still I won't be long
I promise you'll dream better when I'm done

Last night I
Earned my worth
In gold
Sold myself
And my soul
2 bits for
The ferry,
Man's toll
To fly you
Sometimes have
To fall

Always tell the truth
Follow the Golden Rule
Do what's been done to you
Speak when you're spoken to

Endure the abuse
Swallow your silver spoon
Take what's been taken from you
Step when I tell you to

You won't let me do
Anything
Anything
Anything
Flightless bird with a
Broken wing
Broken wing
Broken wing

I don't want to cry
I don't want to lie
I want to fly

THE CHILD HAS DIED

Sulking now
Careful not to cry out loud
Nothing if I make a sound
Another voice gone never to be found
