The Lost Children

I will cry for your pain tonight
Because unfortunately I know
I will have nightmares tonight
Because inside I feel your woe

I pray that he will leave you be
And for once you will be alright
I pray to god to save you from him
So tonight you will escape fright

I hope that you will make it
For I know you are really strong
I hope you let go of your guilt
What he does to you is wrong

I will not sleep a wink tonight
Because I will be crying for you
I will not dare close my eyes
Fearing what you’re going through

I wish I could come and get you
And keep you safe from him
I wish you could live with me
And not have to suffer his sin

I say this to all of the children
Who are hurting so much inside
I care for all of you children
For each one of you I have cried

I would die to save you from this
A life where you are being destroyed
I would die to give back your youth
So your childhood would be enjoyed

I am sorry I cannot change things
And that you are suffering in silence
I am sorry that I cannot save you
From the nights of fear and violence
