From the recording Tale of Two Halves
Lyrics
(Dear God, please keep the demons at bay tonight, were so afraid and so powerless.
Please protect my mother, please protect my sister, Amen)
You don’t have to pray for me, I know now where I’m going,
I’ve seen so many things that I’ve locked away, for far too long…
For far too long.
I’ve seen the devil’s eyes, as I watched my mother cry,
Every night holding tight my, my sister and I, yeah.
Break the door down with his boot, daddy’s coming through.
Is there any of you who’ve lived such fear?
We scared little dear, in a world of hungry wolves.
(Dear God, thank you for the strength you give our mother.
Please continue to help guide her, and protect us from this evil beside us.
With her we’re not afraid, and we know we’re not alone, Amen)
A child’s heart is a fragile thing, any moment it’s broken, it scars,
We’re not alone our, hope is near, there’s an angel here, her love conquers fear…
Love conquers fear.
I only ask you now, is there a hero among you?
Is the courage locked away, locked away, inside of you?
If so, then what, what are you waiting for?
It goes on and on and on…
I’ve seen the devil’s eyes, as I watched my mother cry,
Every night holding tight my, my sister and I, yeah.
Break the door down with his boot, daddy’s coming through.
Is there any of you who’ve lived such fear?
We scared little dear, in a world of hungry wolves.
(Dear God, thank you so much for helping us survive this,
Dear God, I thank you for the person I am today, Amen)
