Emily Plazek - The Child Inside Lyrics
Tempted to fall into cynicalChild Inside, I'm back again,Praying for strength to my feathered friendFalling felt blissCrawled on skin, lick on lipsChild Inside, please hear my pleaMaybe it was all a dreamSweet, sweet, sweet humanityYou beautiful, volatile seaMy paradigm, my epitomeMy child inside, don't give up on meOn that who I amThe who I can beFor hell is here on earth, in meWhen doubt and fear I choose to seeAnd heaven is all of the livesThat choose to love over surviveI want to live, not just surviveI want heaven, not hell, before I dieI want heaven, my child insideSilence tempting, years I couldn't singChild Inside, you kept music onAnd one day, I prayed, I'd sing back alongClose to the edge,No, I can't be done yetChild Inside, my last innocence,The uncanny was never coincidenceSweet, sweet, sweet humanityYou beautiful, volatile seaMy paradigm, my epitomeMy child inside, don't give up on meOn that who I amThe who I can beFor hell is here on earth, in meWhen doubt and fear I choose to seeAnd heaven is all of the livesThat choose to love over surviveI want to live, not just surviveI want heaven, not hell, before I dieI want heaven, my child insideI believe hell can endFor hell is here on earth, in meWhen doubt and fear I choose to seeAnd heaven is all of the livesThat choose to love over surviveI want to live, not just surviveI want heaven, not hell, before I dieI want heaven, my child inside
