Sweet child of innocence

Living in the present tense

Father Time will take his toll

Rack your body and steal your soul

What became of all the years

Are you drowning in your tears

Who will catch you when you fall

Who will hear you when you call



I will comfort you, take your hand and see you through

I will take you through the door



Who do you think you are

Try to live forever and you won't get far

I wait behind your door

Makes no difference if you're rich or poor

Though you're weary and afraid

Still you try to flee my blade

Come and walk in my new land

If you'll only take my hand



In the image of those who have walked before me here

I am cast in the web of an ancient spell

I am holding on to life, I'm drifting in the stream

Everything's much clearer now

We live within a dream and never wake



Judge not by what you see

More than you can count are here with me

Give up your foolish pride

All that walk the earth have died
