Wallflower

Interprete: Peter Gabriel
Disco: Peter Gabriel 4 (Security)

Letra de la canción:

6 x 6 - from wall to wall

Shutters on the windows, no light at all

Damp on the floor, you got damp in the bed

They're trying to get you crazy - get you out of your head

And they feed you scraps and they feed you lies

To lower your defences - no compromise

Nothing you can do, the day can be long

Your mind is working overtime, your body's not too strong

Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on

They put you in a box so you can't get heard

Let your spirit stay unbroken, may you not be deterred

Hold on

You have gambled with your own life

And you face the night alone

While the builders of the cages

Sleep with bullets, bars and stone

They do not see your road to freedom

That you build with flesh and bone

They take you out and the light burns your eyes

To the talking room - it's no surprise

Loaded questions from clean white coats

Their eyes are all as hidden as their Hippocratic Oath

They tell you - how to behave, behave as their guest

You want to resist them, you do your best

They take you to your limits, they take you beyond

For all that they are doing there's no way to respond

Hold on, hold on

They put you in a box so you can't get heard

Let your spirit stay unbroken, may you not be deterred

Hold on

You have gambled with your own life

And you face the night alone

While the builders of the cages

Sleep with bullets, bars and stone

They do not see your road to freedom

That you build with flesh and bone

Though you may disappear, you're not forgotten here

And I will say to you, I will do what I can do

You may disappear, you're not forgotten here

And I will say to you, I will do what I can do

And I will do what I can do

And I will do what I can do
