Why did you steal the matches from the one room motel?
Once they gave you answers, now they give you hell
They will never understand
They wonder where did they go wrong
How could you be so selfish, why can't you get along?

And as you pray in your darkness for wings to set you free
You are bound to your silent legacy

You've seen it in the movies and heard it on the street
Craving the affection, your blood is full of heat
They don't listen to your reasons, as original as sin
Deny all that you feel, and they will bring you home again

And as you pray in your darkness for wings to set you free
You are bound to your silent legacy

Your body is alive, but no one told you what you'd feel
The empty aching hours trying to conceal
The natural progression is the coming of your age
But they cover it with shame and turn it into rage

And as you pray in your darkness for wings to set you free
You are bound to your silent legacy

You are digging for the answers until your fingers bleed
To satisfy the hunger, to satiate the need
And they feed you on the guilt
To keep you humble, keep you low
Some man and myth they made up a thousand years ago

And as you pray in your darkness for wings to set you free
You are bound to your silent legacy

Mothers tell your children, be quick you must be strong
Life is full of wonder, love is never wrong
Remember how they taught you, how much of it was fear
Refuse to hand it down, the legacy stops here

Oh, my child
Oh, my child
Hush
Hush, my child
Oh, my child
Oh, my child
Oh, my child


Mirror lyrics:

Oh, my child
Oh, my child
Oh, my child
Hush, my child
Hush
Oh, my child
Oh, my child

Refuse to hand it down, the legacy stops here
Remember how they taught you, how much of it was fear
Life is full of wonder, love is never wrong
Mothers tell your children, be quick you must be strong

You are bound to your silent legacy
And as you pray in your darkness for wings to set you free

Some man and myth they made up a thousand years ago
To keep you humble, keep you low
And they feed you on the guilt
To satisfy the hunger, to satiate the need
You are digging for the answers until your fingers bleed

You are bound to your silent legacy
And as you pray in your darkness for wings to set you free

But they cover it with shame and turn it into rage
The natural progression is the coming of your age
The empty aching hours trying to conceal
Your body is alive, but no one told you what you'd feel

You are bound to your silent legacy
And as you pray in your darkness for wings to set you free

Deny all that you feel, and they will bring you home again
They don't listen to your reasons, as original as sin
Craving the affection, your blood is full of heat
You've seen it in the movies and heard it on the street

You are bound to your silent legacy
And as you pray in your darkness for wings to set you free

How could you be so selfish, why can't you get along?
They wonder where did they go wrong
They will never understand
Once they gave you answers, now they give you hell
Why did you steal the matches from the one room motel?
