Children Lyrics - Singles - Eleanor Shore

Soldier boy 

Her crying's in your head 

It's like you are young again 

She is but a whisper 

Of voices all at once 

Soldier boy Let god do unto you 

What you did to her 

All those many nights ago 

That left her where she is 

Your mother knows 

That you are still her boy 

You cry look me in the eyes 

Cause I am still your baby 

Alone and out of touch 

She tells her friends 

That she held your hand 

Through your toughest times 

Now she doesn't know what 

You're dong with your hair 

Soldier boy 

The mirror is screaming at you 

You're changed you're sick, 

You've lost everything 

I will hold your withered hand 

I'll kiss your heart and I'll tell you 

Stupid fucking lies 

You'll write down on your arm 

And I'll see that you're never alone 

Before you cross the sea 

To live amongst the souls 

That doomed you to a life 

You promised you'd never leave 

Your mother wiped her eye, 

No goodbye is for a lifetime 

Let god do unto me
