The Dreadful Hours

Mother will you take me down? I have become so afraid Mother please, please take me down Sorry, your boy is not brave Child just hold on. Night will soon be gone Sleep if you can. But watch your father's hand We do not want you. No-body loves you Father of the dark. Tonight will greet you God in heaven, can you hear me Help me Oh Lord. They're coming for me Mother warned me. Father scorned me Oh my God No. Now I hear him I claim your life on this night within sight of your own God The silence, the waiting then the pain Oh child, sleep will be here soon Your life has only ever been shame And so young boy, my hand brings doom Child, won't you awake. Father has gone Child, please come awake. Please my tiny son
