SILENT LEGACY

MELISSA ETHERIDGE

Tonalité :

Intro :

Why did you steal the matches from the one room motel

Once they gave you answers, now they give you hell

They will never understand, they wonder where did they go wrong

How could you be so selfish, why can't you get along

And as you pray in your darkness f or wings to set you free

You are bound to your silent legac y

You've seen it in the movies and you've heard it on the street

Craving the affection your blood is full of heat

They don't listen to your reasons as original as sin

Deny all that you feel and they will bring you home again

And as you pray in your darkness for wings to set you free

You are bound to your silent legacy

Your body is alive but no one told you what you'd feel

The empty aching hours trying to conceal

The natural progression is the coming of your age

But they cover it with shame and turn it into rage

And as you pray in your darkness for wings to set you free

You are bound to your silent legacy

You are digging for the answers until your fingers bleed

To satisfy the hunger, to satiate the need

They feed you on the guilt to keep you humble keep you low

Some man and myth they made up a thousand years ago

And as you pray in your darkness for wings to set you free

You are bound to your silent legac y

Mothers tell your children be quick you must be strong

Life is full of wonder, love is never wrong

Remember how they taught you, how much of it was fear

Refuse to hand it down, the legacy stops here

Oh my child...
