My Dying Bride - The Dreadful Hours lyrics

rate me

Mother will you take me down?

I have become so afraid

Mother please, please take me down

Sorry, your boy is not brave

Child just hold on. Night will soon be gone

Sleep if you can. But watch your father's hand

We do not want you. No-body loves you

Father of the dark. Tonight will greet you

God in heaven, can you hear me

Help me Oh Lord. They're coming for me

Mother warned me. Father scorned me

Oh my God No. Now I hear him

I claim your life on this night

within sight of your own God

The silence, the waiting then the pain

Oh child, sleep will be here soon

Your life has only ever been shame

And so young boy, my hand brings doom

Child, won't you awake. Father has gone

Child, please come awake. Please my tiny son
