You once took me by the hand
and I didn't ask you where we were going
I told you I'm not afraid while with you
My good mother, my lonely mother
You had lost your husband
And I had lost my parent
And then, mother, oh, mother
I then christened you my leader
You locked the house twice
You took us and we moved to the city
Everyone approached you evilly, like ravens
Because they saw how scared you were
And when I was just a small child
I was trying to be mature, preparing to attack
with a tremble, with a fear
for my leader not to crumble
And the years started to flow
Like the colour on the batist
I was a seamstress
And my brother on the ships
Greece's future was doubtful
And fear became your regime
I became afraid that they'd knock you down
And this time I became your leader
And just when I started defining
Love came to define me
and I got entangled into the transaction,
loves put me in the middle
You didn't want me to get hurt
But they didn't see your longing
And all of them were trying to dethrone your leader
And when I started singing
I was the voice of the poor
But I became the target of the dealers
and a victim of knowledge
They tried to creak my foundations
My future was no longer mine
Then you reached out your hand again
And I made you my leader once again
Now I'm lost in the sounds
And you, finally free, are dancing
You're the only one who believes me
When I talk to you through my songs
Now I love
But I do not define
Now I'm not searching for anyone to blame
Now I've found my way
I left the whole leadership thing behind
