Ayreon Day Six: Childhood Lyrics

This is one of the saddest Ayreon songs ever... though this is very nice to play!
especially if you got a vocalist or you are a vocalist... =)

Day six: Childhood (original)
Intro: Em C D C Em Em D C Em
Verse:
gony[
] You're alone in your bedroom
Hiding from the world, staring at the ceiling
Mother said 'he'll be home soon'
But he never was, and I knew how she was feeling
Chorus:
ear[
] You always let him down; 'you'd never be like him'
He'd always break you, never let you win
No matter what you said, he'd always disagree
You swore that one day you would be
better than him...one day you'd win
Verse:
ony
You're hiding out in the cellar
Aching and ashamed, covering up the bruises
And then he would tell her
How I tripped and hurt my head, how I'd always be a loser
Chorus:
ear[
] You always let him down; 'you'd never be like him'
He'd always break you, never let you win
No matter what you said, he'd always disagree
You swore that one day you would be
better than him...one day you'd win

Verse:

You're all alone in your bedroom
How could you learn to care, when nobody cares for you
Mother said he'd be home soon
But he never came, as for me...he didn't have to...
