The Blinding Light

The fear is what shelters them It's what shades their eyes and muffles their ears The fear is what shelters them It's what shades their eyes and muffles their ears Yeah Keep them inside Lock them up in a closet known as home In here no one can find them In here no one can fill them with filth In here no one can find them In here no one can fill them with filth They were born with the silverware clenched in their teeth They were born with the silverware clenched in their teeth They were born with the silverware clenched in their teeth And so help us, they will die with it too So help us, they will die with it too They will die with it too None of them will make anything of themselves They don't need their own lives The ones we have planned will work just fine They don't need their own lives The ones we have planned will work just fine Oh The world is a terrifying place Without us they will never make it They will never reach their potential They will never ever surpass us Without our watchful eye, they might just leave us behind Without our watchful eye, they might just leave us behind
