Swans - Still a Child lyrics
[Swans - Still a Child lyrics]
The day I was born
Your shadow fell across my mother's breast
When I opened my eyes, you coloured my mind
Every move I make, is by your desire
Every move I make, is by your hand only
Now I'm still a child
But I'm closer to death cover me in roses
Gently touch me while I sleep
When I dream I'll dream of drowning
In a pool of scented blood
Now I'm still a child
But I'm closer to death
You said "take this it's yours" so
I've kept it locked away
Now you're curled up beneath me in
A pool of your own blood
Now I'm still a child
But I'm closer to death
Your shadow fell across my mother's breast
When I opened my eyes, you coloured my mind
Every move I make, is by your desire
Every move I make, is by your hand only
Now I'm still a child
But I'm closer to death cover me in roses
Gently touch me while I sleep
When I dream I'll dream of drowning
In a pool of scented blood
Now I'm still a child
But I'm closer to death
You said "take this it's yours" so
I've kept it locked away
Now you're curled up beneath me in
A pool of your own blood
Now I'm still a child
But I'm closer to death
