Day Eight School by Ayreon
Day Eight School lyrics
Fear It's time to leave your sheltered cage
Face you deepest fears
The world is against you
You're fighting back the tears
Me All the kids were watching me
I felt very small
I could hear the laughter
As I stumbled down the hall
Rage (human) Seeking to find
deep in the trauma as it leaves you behind
(human) Bleeding it gone
into the profit of the competition
(human) Loving today,
all of the feelings are they going away
(human) Ending it now,
I'd rather hear about the where and the how
Agony The bigger boys they beat you up
Out here you cannot hide
No friends to help you
No father at your side
Me I swore that I'd get back at them
But I was just a kid
One day I'd show them
I wouldn't rest until I did
Rage (human) Seeking to find
deep in the trauma as it leaves you behind
(human) Bleeding it gone
into the profit of the competition
(human) Loving today,
all of the feelings are they going away
(human) Ending it now,
I'd rather hear about the where and the how
Pride You've got to prove you are not like the rest
Reason There's no need if you know you're the best
Pride That's not enough, let the other kids know
Reason What's the use, go with the flow
Pride Be a man, give into hate
Reason You better learn to communicate
Pride Better to learn to protect yourself
Reason That's not the way to get out of this hell
Pride See that kid, wipe the smile off his face
Reason He's just like you, feeling out of place
Pride Well I don't care, let's show him who's boss
Reason That's not the way to get your message across
Pride Be a man, give into hate
Reason You better learn to communicate
Pride Better to learn to protect yourself
Reason That's not the way to get out of this hell
Passion Don't rack your brain, let it all go
Savour the moment and feel your blood flow
Me Then I got back at them
Still acting like a kid
Then I showed them
But when I had I could not quit...
Rage (human) Seeking to find
deep in the trauma as it leaves you behind
(human) Bleeding it gone into the
profit of the competition
(human) Loving today,
all of the feelings are they going away
(human) Ending it now,
I'd rather hear about the where and the how
