Bless The Child
Nightwish "I was born amidst the purple waterfalls. One night I dreamt a white rose withering, I was weak, yet not unblessed. Dead to the world. Alive for the journey. a newborn drowning a lifetime loneliness. I dreamt all my future. Relived my past. Where have all the feelings gone? A witnessed the beauty of the beast" Why has all the laughter ceased? Why am I loved only when I'm gone? Gone back in time to bless the child Come bless the child one more time Think of me long enough to make a memory Given the chance would I return? How can I ever feel again? There's a poison drop in this cup of Man I've never felt so alone in my life As I drank from a cup which was counting my time "Where have all the feelings gone? Why is the deadliest sin To drink it is to follow the left hand path soon to be freed from care, from human pain. Now unblessed, homesick in time, My tale is the most bitter truth: Remember, my child: Without innocence the cross is only iron, Time pays us but with earth & dust, and a dark, silent grave. hope is only an illusion & Ocean Soul's nothing but a name... "The Child bless thee & keep thee forever" |
