Afraid Songtext

von Snubnose

So afraid of ...
You declare that you rely
On traditional ways
You swear on proven remedies
Cling on to principles
So you're hallowing the letter
And you see fulfillment in the law
You're forced to find out
Who or what is right or wrong
So afraid of ...
You refer to reason and to
Logic and to common sence
But you don't want to argue
You won't ever help me
To understand
You teach me true obedience
And remind me of my duties
As you say - follow the authorities
And do what they say
So afraid of ...
Changes - new ideas
Failure - different views
The unknown - helplessness
Freedom - self-respect
So afraid of ...
Show your feelings
Follow your aims
Scratch the surface
Look inside
Get to know yourself
Open up your heart
Ask for forgiveness
And to lose grace
