They were nightmares along each path
Chaining me away from the forbidden fruit
Surrounding me with that ancient cloak
So that I would never be noticed
But curiosity remained a child
And escaped to live; to be free
Yet they still clinged to me

Empty vessels they were
Which never seemed to care
Making the world a holy nuisance
They were angels in disguise
Protecting me from the danger ahead
But I didn't wait for patience

Their words ringed like that of a pirate
Till the sinner confessed to the priest
There's no need to hide the truth
'Cause I already know:
All the rumours were true
It's a small world after all
Guilty just marked you first
