Dear Child Lyrics

Live your life the same another day

Innocent with no sign of decay

Untouched by the flames of fear

You'll see one day my dear child

See the world for as it is

Small and shy, now say your goodbye

I cannot hide it from you anymore

You won't be ready, and neither will I

So remember this bitter sweet goodbye

All people seem so brave

All alone, they're hiding in their caves

Untouched by the haze of hate

My darling, you're still on your clean slate

See the world for as it is

Small and shy, now say your goodbye

I cannot hide it from you anymore

You won't be ready, and neither will I

So remember this bitter sweet goodbye

I can only keep you safe for so long

Don't listen to what they say, they're wrong

Please be strong for me

See the world for as it is

Small and shy, now say your goodbye

I cannot hide it from you anymore

Lay away from the evil you see every day

Make way for the pain that may

My dear child
