Come here my child, let me look into your eyes
Can't you see I am near, I am one of your kind
You lie there shivering in silence as you tears are falling down
Do you remember what's been foretold
You can't turn away


All that happened to you, you have to forget, have to do as I say
No one can see what's going on in the dark
All these games that we play


Poor child with thoughts so frail, an unsuspecting trustful life
Enforced to overcome all fears
Enshrine the strangest dream of hope in the garden of your heart
A painful wound will forever shine through
Time to turn away


All that happened to you, you have to forget, have to do as I say
No one can see what's going on in the dark
All these games that we play


You lie there awake at night, a life now lost in deep despair
A child so young doesn't anyone care
Searching for reasons of eternal sadness
Now I'm back I am here to explore
Dry your glimmering eyes, yes you know that I care
You can't turn away


All that happened to you, you have to forget, have to do as I say
No one can see what's going on in the dark
All these games that we play
