You fear to leave your mark As much as the wild, fears the winter I fear the damage Like a child, full of splinters We fear the rain of guilt Pouring over us I fear the day When the love of power defeats the power of love And those who aren't afraid Will be the first to know About the inevitable change And inability to grow But you keep your eyes closed So you can't see the dark And pretend they are frozen So you can't see the spark Of the flame indisposed By the terror in your heart Wake up build up before you tear apart The courage of your convictions Bathing in disregard for posterity What are you doing it for? To immerse yourself in domesticity Surrender your soul and ignore the war But you keep your eyes closed So you can't see the dark And pretend they are frozen So you can't see the spark Of the flame indisposed By the terror in your heart Wake up build up before you tear apart The courage of your convictions But you keep your eyes closed So you can't see the dark And pretend they are frozen So you can't see the spark Of the flame indisposed By the terror in your heart Wake up build up before you tear apart The courage of your convictions But you keep your eyes closed So you can't see the dark And pretend they are frozen So you can't see the spark Of the flame indisposed By the terror in your heart Wake up build up before you tear apart The courage of your convictions
