Bless The Child


I was born amidst the purple waterfalls
I was weak, yet not unblessed
Dead to the world Alive for the journey
One night I dreamt a white rose withering,
a newborn drowning a lifetime loneliness
I dreamt all my future Relived my past
A witnessed the beauty of the beast"

Where have all the feelings gone?
Why has all the laughter ceased?

Why am I loved only when I'm gone?
Gone back in time to bless the child
Think of me long enough to make a memory
Come bless the child one more time

How can I ever feel again?
Given the chance would I return?

I've never felt so alone in my life
As I drank from a cup which was counting my time
There's a poison drop in this cup of Man
To drink it is to follow the left hand path

"Where have all the feelings gone?
Why is the deadliest sin - to love as I loved you?
Now unblessed, homesick in time,
soon to be freed from care, from human pain
My tale is the most bitter truth:
Time pays us but with earth & dust, and a dark, silent grave
Remember, my child: Without innocence the cross is only iron,
hope is only an illusion & Ocean Soul's nothing but a name

The Child bless thee & keep thee forever
