Disturbed — My Child

[Verse 1] Tore it up again, I couldn’t stop again Let it go till there was nothing in the way Fought the feeling then, I gave in again Sweet surrender to the angel I denied When you came to life I was terrified I knew that nothing else would ever feel the same Doubt came over me; what kind of father would I be? I knew the time had come to stand up and be a man [Chorus 1] To change the face of my life (To change the face of my life) With your future in mind (With your future in mind) Time to do what is right (What is right) A new beginning [Chorus 2] The world around me died When I saw that heartbeat I knew it wasn’t a sin Can someone tell me why This has happened to me? Why was it only in death? Were you redeemed, my child? [Verse 2] No serenity within agony Every day brings on A hundred ways to fight Constant scrutiny I can feel you judging me Resurrecting every demon left inside Her face was horrified You struggled still alive My one desire was to trade my soul for yours Grief crippled me, the reaper cheated me Left me yearning for the path I'd come to adore [Chorus 1] To change the face of my life (To change the face of my life) With your future in mind (With your future in mind) Time to do what is right (What is right) A new beginning [Chorus 2] The world around me died When I saw that heartbeat I knew it wasn’t a sin Can someone tell me why This has happened to me? Why was it only in death? Were you redeemed, my child? [Hook] My child [Chorus 2] The world around me died When I saw that heartbeat I knew it wasn’t a sin Can someone tell me why This has happened to me? Why was it only in death? Were you redeemed, my child? [Outro] I pray you were redeemed, my child
