The children look towards the west
And turn their backs against the dawn
Where only the hollow fall against the wall
A scream not mine I hear
All the sounds of fear.
* The sky like blood
Oh steel to flesh
The earth so black
Oh flesh and steel
** And when you laughed
I laughed with you
And when you die
I"ll die with you.
I dreamt I was your slave
Tear out my beating heart
While I kneel before you
Genuflect on broken glass
If you touched me
I could need you
Don't b*** the hand that feeds you
If you kissed me I would bleed
* R
** R
* R (x 2)
Pierce me with iron
All the sounds of fear
*** And when you laughed
I laughed
And when you die
I"ll die
*** R (x 2)
