B3. The Hand That Rocks The CradleYoung life, too young, whose eyes are chokingCan'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! |
