DEPECHE MODE - The Child Inside lyrics

rate me

There is darkness and death in your eyes

What have you got buried inside?

The shallow grave in your soul

The ghosts that have taken control

You really should’ve dug a little deeper then

Body parts are starting to appear and scare

The child inside away

Each tear that flows down your face

Trickles then picks up the pace

And turns to a river inside

A river that will not subside

I can hear that dreadful overflowing sound

I’m watching from afar, I see your child is drowned

The child inside your heart

I can see you drifting away

Heading for the light

I can see you drifting away

Every night

Why were you always inside

On the days when the weather was fine

And why we were running around

You were nowhere to be found

You know you should’ve taken all your dolls to bed

But you were made to play games with your soul instead

The child inside you died
