Really heard this song in a new way after unplugging. Good food for thought.

New blood joins this earth, And quickly he's subdued. Through constant pained disgrace The young boy learns their rules.

With time the child draws in. This whipping boy done wrong. Deprived of all his thoughts The young man struggles on and on he's known A vow unto his own, That never from this day His will they'll take away.

What I've felt, What I've known Never shined through in what I've shown. Never be. Never see. Won't see what might have been.

What I've felt, What I've known Never shined through in what I've shown. Never free. Never me. So I dub thee unforgiven.

They dedicate their lives To running all of his. He tries to please them all – This bitter man he is.

Throughout his life the same – He's battled constantly. This fight he cannot win – A tired man they see no longer cares.

The old man then prepares To die regretfully – That old man here is me.
