Tell me child, who did you wrong?
Why did they change the tune of your song?
Beams of sunlight can't see through your heart
Are you and I too made to fall apart?
Darkness is cold and the night is strange
What else can we get in this day and age?
Come, let my blood wash away your pain
No one will ever hurt you again

Open your eyes, child, it is time
We alone bore witness to an unforgivable crime
I saw you falling from a tower of tears
Were you speaking to God, after all these years?
They traded love for money and pride
The oaths were forgotten, the angels had died
Put down the dagger, breathe deeply, count to ten
No one will ever hurt you again

Sand covers what once was life
Seas of agony next to puddles of strife
I'll paint you a dream the color of time
Eventually prayers just seize to rhyme
I wish I could see myself through your eyes
I wish my shining armor wasn't just a disguise
The beats of our hearts are emotions spent in vane
No one will ever hurt us again
