Day Twelve: Trauma Lyrics

[Reason]

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

[Fear] We won't let you go

Take you down below

Dark crypts of your soul

Locked inside your head...

You're better of dead

[Agony] 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

[Passion] She won't let you go

Keep you down below

Dark crypts of your soul

Locked inside your head

You're better of dead

[Agony] 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

[Passion] She won't let you go

Keep you down below

Dark crypts of your soul

Locked inside your head

You're better of dead

[Reason] 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 Ayreon - Day Twelve: Trauma - http://motolyrics.com/ayreon/day-twelve-trauma-lyrics.html

Your mother died, the day your father left

A part of you died as well

Feelings of guilt will haunt you 'til the end

You must fight hard to break this spell

But it hurts...

[Fear] You hear her voice, from beyond her grave

"Where were you son, when I needed you

Is this your thanks for all the warmth I gave

Did you forget what I been through?"

You hear his voice, cold and merciless

"You worthless fool, you let her die!"

And deep within yourself, you must confess

Your ways cannot be justified

[Pride] By now you realized, you have to be

relentless to survive

Repress your memories,

bury all emotions and thrive!

It's your life!

[Reason] Now she's at rest, she found her peace

[Fear] You hear her voice, from the grave

[Reason] You must let go or the pain won't cease

[Fear] "Is this your thanks for all I gave"

[Reason] A part of you died as well

[Fear] "You worthless fool, you let her die"

[Reason] It's time to crawl out of your shell

[Fear] Your ways cannot be justified

[Pride] By now you realized, you have to be

relentless to survive

Repress your memories,

bury all emotions and thrive!

It's your life!
