Oracle Songtext
von ilyAIMY

I come to you, humble and willing
Brave stepping over the bones of my brethren
I wouldn′t come here if I wasn't desperate
But I am too small, I cannot lift this

One cement block could hold all I love
Each moment sinking into the mud
And I would do everything in my own power
But I am too small, and so is the hour

And will I never be great
Because I refuse to be cruel
Will I always be afraid
Will I always need
An oracle?

They said you were great, and they were not lying
But why is this greatness so terrifying
Great and terrible, always in pairs
Come to an oracle, trembling and scared


And will I never be great
Because I refuse to be cruel
Will I always be afraid
Will I always need
An oracle?

I do not steal like the rats in the rosebushes
I do not kill like the owl in the forest
I do not lie like the leaders of fortresses
So will I die with the kind and the powerless?
I do not steal like the rats in the rosebushes
I do not kill like the owl in the forest
I do not lie like the leaders of fortresses
So I will die with the kind and the powerless
Powerless

And I say that I will never be great
Because I refuse to be cruel
So I will always be a little afraid
I will always be little, but I would rather be little
Than ever be
An oracle
