Dreadful Moments

Limp footsteps stump to my door

He's coming down the corridor

Tears wash my face, I cannot stand

These lessons taught by father's wreakful hand

Dreadful moments always last too long

This pain and woe just can't be gone

Dreadful moments always last too long

This pain and woe just can't be gone

Mother, would you come and save me from this hell?

Oh mother, I can't take this anymore

Please, oh please, let me feel your hand on me forevermore

I beg you, crying out, cease reign of horror

Piercing silence is the only to reply

No one gives their aid no matter how I cry

Being fed to lions, I'm left high and dry

Atrocity makes only of its own kind

Those never felt a gentle touch

Can solely clench their fists to grind

And bring this world so much of grief

Dreadful moments always last too long

This pain and woe just can't be gone

Dreadful moments always last too long

This pain and woe just can't be gone

Childhood of misery

This lifelong injury

A burden hidden by the curtain of years

A trauma that could not be healed

Childhood of misery

This lifelong injury

A burden hidden by the curtain of years

A trauma that could never be healed

(Memories of fear and dread deeply sealed)
