The Scorn of Others Songtext

von Atlas Losing Grip

For me a constant reminder of childhood
Homes, a place of fear and emptiness instead of comfort
And love. Because that's what it is in so many cases,
And you say they chose it themselves? A major role of
The government is to ease the fears of the citizens. Fear
Of what we could become and what others has to deal
With. Because that's how it is in so many cases, the fear
Of what we can't relate to. The rats of the streets, out
Of mind in the warmth of idyllic homes. Because that's
How it is in so many cases, out of mind in the warmth
Of idyllic homes. Who would choose to live life amongst
The scorn of others? You say they chose it themselves.
Won't let your children get near them. The gift of life
Gone sour in the soil of lonely hearts.
Who would choose to live life?
