Savatage - One Child lyrics

Your rating:

One child stood before the altar

One child stood out in the rain

One child spent his time imagining

And I don't believe he's coming home again, home again, home a...



(chorus)

Right there in the earth, I've been drawing a line

I'm digging it deep, don't know if I'll find

A tunnel out so we all can be saved

If not, just take this earth and bury me, for this will be my grave



One child hid inside the darkness

One child never said a thing

One child closed his eyes and disappeared

But at night I still can hear him whispering, whispering, whisper...



(chorus)

Right there in the earth, I've been drawing a line

I'm digging it deep, don't know if I'll find

A tunnel out so we all can be saved

If not, just take this earth and bury me, for this will be my grave



(lead break/coda)

I will believe in you

If you still want me to

Or tell me I'm on my own

There on the other side

Tell me the Pilate's died

And we're no longer alone



(bridge)

Take your answers and your promises, believe me I don't care

I have held on to your words until I found them only air

What good are your promises if you can always take them back?

Still, I hang on every word till my hands are bleeding



(coda)

I will believe in you

If you still want me to

Or tell me I'm on my own

There on the other side

Tell me the Pilate's died

And we're no longer alone



(simultaneously)



I will believe in you      We had no choice but to stay and follow

If you still want me to    We have nothing left except tomorrow

Or tell me I'm on my own   We have nothing left except what will be

There on the other side    What we need here are some real decisions

Tell me the Pilate's died  While you only offer mindless visions

And we're no longer alone  Visions that nobody else here can see



(simultaneously) / = where stanza 1 lines begin in comparison to other stanzas

We're on our...

I will believe in you

If you still want me to

(chorus)

Right there in the earth, I've been drawing a line

I'm digging it deep, don't know if I'll find

A tunnel out so we all can be saved

If not, just take this earth and bury me, for this will be my grave
