Lyrics
Conundrum - Frightened of the Truth
---------------------------------------------------------
Doctor - I deserve to exist.
Kes - Why?
Doctor - I was born of the hidden, the suppressed. I am
the dark threads from many personalities, none of whom
could face the darkness inside, so they denied me,
suppressed me. Frightened of the Truth
Kes - What truth is that?
Doctor - That darkness is more fundamental than light,
cruelty before kindness, Evil more primary than good,
more deserving of existence.
Kes - You're wrong
Doctor - NO!
How so?
Kes - Empathy and kindness are basic to all forms of
life. the very organs and cells of the body cooperate
with each other, otherwise they wouldn't function
Doctor - Continue.
Kes - Families, societies, cultures, wouldn't have
evolved without compassion and tolerance, cooperation and
understanding between countless individuals, they would
have fallen apart without them. We can find a place for
both of you.
Doctor - No.

Black Rain
Is it still blood in your veins?
Or a new fire
Of glory and fury and wisdom and pain.
The pain...
A cold hate
Frightened of the Truth that evil was first
From the start
Another waiting mouth of damnation
A New Age
Kiss the snake and take your place
From beyond (a new time)
The glory and fury and wisdom and pain.
The pain.....
A cold hate
Frightened of the Truth that evil was first
From the start
Another waiting Hell of salvation
Stand up, Shake off the rust
The wicked outnumber the just
Evil triumphs, might is right
Cast off the chains, Step into the night
Anemic Souls of the good
Atop the pyre like cordwood
Come the fire, come the flame,
Come conflagration in Satan's name.
Come the fire, come the flame,
Come conflagration.....
Frightened of the Truth
Frightened of the Truth
