Empty Corner

Ain't I so nice

Mother you're so wise

I'll satisfy your will

You've tied me tight

But I won't fight

Because I don't dare to try

A holy place for disgrace

After having been a bad bad boy

You like to see me cry

A fact your can't deny

Mother I ask you why

If I hurt your honour

You push me back into my corner

You want to protect me from the wicked world outside

You keep me in your empire of glass and I'm your pride

I dream of breaking the glass and stepping into the unknown

But do I have strength to pull myself over the wall of fear

What would happen to my mother

Would I hurt your feelings

Would you still take me back if I missed you too much

Spoke up my mind

Mother you're not so kind

I'm back in the corner

I'm begging thanksgiving

"You must be kidding"

Guessed I did disappoint you

Oh mommy I'm so sorry

A holy place for disgrace

After having been a bad bad boy

To this white sheep

Raising stuck cuts too deep

I think I'm done

The cuts will bleed 'cos you don't have

You wanted to protect me from my dream world outside

You keep me in your empire of glass

And say I'm your pride
