---

Young life, too young, whose eyes are choking

Can't rest, can't sleep, for dreams that set you falling

Don't feel the hunger, can't drink no holy water

No light in these eyes, no place for dreams at all tonight.!.

When the hand that rocks the cradle is the hand that holds the knife

And the knife that cuts the cable is the spark that feeds the life

[Chorus]:

No grave could be deep enough, down to hell if we were able

The veil of life was pushed aside by the hand that rocks the cradle

The oath you take is sacred, to save not steal the life

Like the ending of the sweetest soul that looked through human eyes

[[Chorus]

Young life, too young, whose eyes are choking

Can't rest, can't sleep, for dreams that set you falling

Don't feel the hunger, can't drink no holy water

No light in these eyes, no place for dreams at all tonight.!.

It's the hand that rocks the cradle!

It's the hand that steals the life!
