Child in silence, I've seen the way the tears run down your face,
Child of violence, I know that you've been dying in this place,
Child without mercy, they've haunted you with whispers in the dark,
Child in exile, they violate and stain you with their mark.

Child, this silent seduction enrages me,
Child, the fatal assassin's black eyes will bleed.

Child in silence, I know who you are,
Child, you're lost and alone in the dark,
Child, I know that you're hurting inside,
Child, I've seen your affection denied,
Child in turmoil, I know where you've been,
Child in darkness, I've heard when you scream in the night,
In this fear of letting go of the light, I hear you calling me home.

Child, through oceans of time I will crawl to be with you,
Child, your truth is a lie - in my eyes the healing arises,
Child, no one shall covet your dreams tonight,
Child, the tyrant shall cry in the streams of light.

Child in silence, I have seen your dreams,
Child in darkness, I've heard when you scream in the night, in this fear of letting go,
In the light, I'll be standing there to hold you.
