Tore it up again

I couldn't stop again

Let it go till there was nothing in the way

Fought the feeling then

I gave in again

Sweet surrender to an angel I denied

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?

I knew the time had come to stand up and be a man



To change the face of my life

With your future in mind

Time to do what was 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 had happened to me

Why was it only in death, were you redeemed, 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 left inside

Her face was horrified

You struggled still alive

My only desire was to trade my soul for yours

Grief crippled me

The reaper cheated me

Left me yearning for the path I'd come to adore



To change the face of my life

With your future in mind

Time to do what was 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 had happened to me

Why was it only in death, were you redeemed, my child
