Lyrics
Angry Child Written
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.
Here I lye like a loathsome creature, in the dark corners of my mind.
Caged like an animal, I've turned myself over to be confined.
My self-seeking has rejected truth, thus I await demand.
For I've made perfection, the beast now in command...
I've been turned over to my jailers, to be torchered and to bleed.
I've been turned over to those I accused, and mercy I now plead.
Within an impatient silence, I awite for judgements cup.
Oh Lord my Lord, I know you haven't given up???
On me...
Chorus:
Angry child, never seen.
Angry child, inside of me.
Angry child, never seen.
Oh my Lord realease me…
I wasn't allowed to scream, I wasn't allowed to yell.
I wasn't allowed to dream, I wasn't allowed to tell.
But Lord you changed, these words I sell...
Lord I was afraid, that when I come to you.
That you wouldn't find me, as you want me to be.
Lord I was afraid, that when I saw you.
You might not want me....
(Chorus)
(Oh Father) Do not take your hand, to far from me.
(Oh Father) Let not the dread of you, make me afraid.
Father I come to you, angry as a child. (2x)
Naked as a child…
