i o s - child to sleep (rewritten) lyrics
verse 1:
children raised in h-ll,
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 h-ll
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 b-lls & 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.
