V1
Sitting here in your small world
You think you´ve got it all
And live your life surrounded by
Shadows on the wall
V2
You live as they taught you
As your ancestors did
„Never look to the light!“
Or you will be hit
PreChorus:
You have never dared to move
To leave your sacred ground
You are scared to know all truth
To turn your head around
Chorus:
From the cradle to the grave
You are living in a cave
Only shadows on the wall
They cannot be really all!
Hardly no one wants to know
About a brighter way to go
V3
Doubts are whirling in your head
But they are weaker than
Conviction of the others
Who defeat you again
V4
But there is a nagging doubt
If light burns like fire
Then fire just can warm either
And might take you higher
PreChorus:
You have never dared to move
To leave your sacred ground
You are scared to know all truth
To turn your head around
Chorus:
From the cradle to the grave
You are living in a cave
Only shadows on the wall
They cannot be really all!
Hardly no one wants to know
About brighter way to go
