Child To Sleep (rewritten) Lyrics

Child To Sleep (rewritten) lyrics

Verse 1:

 Children raised in Hell,

 since their birth.

 Neglected, no escape.

 Prisoners of Earth.

 

 Pre:

 They protect themselves with flames.

 & push their hands into the water.

 Putting up with all the pain.

 Where has the sun gone?

 

 Chorus:

 Can you stop what your stepparents have done?

 They think abusive lives are all in fun.

 Can you take this nightmare & throw it away?

 Can you runaway & save yourself today?

 Children treated like a handful of dirt.

 Nurtures the ground, but poisons the earth.

 Just when it all seems quiet & all pain free.

 It's when they put a child, another child to sleep.

 

 Verse 2:

 Listen kiddo,

 Can you see the light?

 These tears injected,

 Make 'em lose the fight.

 

 Pre:

 So you set the fire high.

 You listen to 'em screaming.

 You burn yourself alive.

 Freedom's as close as dreaming.

 

 Chorus

 

 Verse 3:

 Blood & pain.

 Tears & hurt.

 Lying on top of chrome.

 Sleet or rain.

 Mud or dirt.

 Left without a home.

 Left here all alone.

 

 Pre:

 So they think we're all just liars.

 Makin' stories just to tell.

 But the cuts & broken bones.

 It is proof we live in Hell

 

 Chorus:

 Can you stop what your stepparents have done?

 They think abusive lives are all in fun.

 Can you take this nightmare & throw it away?

 Can you runaway & save yourself today?

 Can you prove that we're tortured souls?

 In balls & chains, trapped inside a hole.

 Just when it all seems quiet & all pain free.

 It's when they put a child, another child to sleep.
