Ayreon — Day Twelve: Trauma lyrics

Lyrics

Think hard, you are lying here in a hospital bed
Disregard the emotions inside your head
Concentrate on the real world beyond your mind
It’s not to late to leave your burdens behind
We won’t let you go Take you down below
Dark crypts of your soul
Locked inside your head…
You’re better of dead
Locked away, she lives in isolation
It’s been that way, since he has gone
She been through life of depravation
She depends on you, her only son
She won’t let you go Keep you down below
Dark crypts of your soul
Locked inside your head
You’re better of dead
Where are you, can’t you hear her calling?
Nothing you can do, you have no time
There is no one there, to catch her now she’s falling
Why should you care, you are doing fine
She won’t let you go Keep you down below
Dark crypts of your soul
Locked inside your head
You’re better of dead
Now she’s at rest, she finally found her peace
There’s no need to blame yourself
You must let go, or the pain will never cease
It’s time to crawl out of your shell
Your mother died, the day your father left
A part of you died as well
Feelings of gui
