Lyrics
Defender Of The Child
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
So there you are, hiding just behind my eye
Another scar, breath of a death, you will never die
Fresh drawn blood upon your cheek
Confrontation's all you seek
Passion rampant, hatred wild,
Defender of the child
Another friend, this means that the blood will fall
Can it not end? Why should I try having love at all?
Sword is to run, you take that stand
Soon you'll sever friendship's hand
Attitude, the bodies piled
Defender of the child
Without you life would seem forever sweet
Without you t'would be a merry dance
Without you I would trust each face I meet
Without you I would never have a chance
So stand by me fight the moonlight when you must
Love yet can be pain will remain if we do not trust
Join as one, instead of two
If they love me then they love you
Wisdom strong and mercies mild
Defender of the child (5 times)
