You never saw daylight
I kept you inside
safe
not for you

but for me
and the village and everything near me
and everything dear to me
and everything else

you never saw daylight
locked up in deep cellars
chained and held quiet
misunderstood

You never saw daylight
because if you would
you would fly over the world
spitting fire, wrecking everything

you'd be roaring and roaring
hurting and destroying
I don't trust your self-control
so I hide you inside

You're not a dragon
or a villain
you're much more dangerous
you're my own heart
