My Child Lyrics

Tore it up again, I couldn't stop again,
Letting go till there was nothing in the way,
Fuck the feeling then, I cave in again,
Sweet surrender to the angel I deny,
When you came to life I was terrified,
I knew that nothing else would ever feel the same,
Doubt came over me; what kind of father would I be?
Another time I could stand up and be a man,
To change a face in my life,
Your future and mine,
Time to do what is right,
A new beginning,

The world around me died,
When I saw that heartbeat,
I knew it wasn't a sin,
Can someone tell me why,
This has happened to me?
Why was it only in death,
Would you redeem my child?

No serenity within agony,
Every day brings on,
A hundred ways to fight,
Constant scrutiny,
I can feel you judging me,
Resurrecting every demon that's inside,
The priest was horrified,
You struggled, still alive,
That one desire was,
The dream I sought for yours,
Grief crippled me, the reaper cheated me,
Left me early for the path I'd come to adore,
To change a face in my life,
Your future and mine,
Time to do what is right,
A new beginning,

The world around me died,
When I saw that heartbeat,
I knew it wasn't a sin,
Can someone tell me why,
This has happened to me?
Why was it only in death,
Would you redeem my child?

My child,

The world around me died,
When I saw that heartbeat,
I knew it wasn't a sin,
Can someone tell me why,
This has happened to me?
Why was it only in death,
Would you redeem my child?

I pray you will redeem my child.
