THE EMPTY CRADLE

歌詞

I'm in the dark all the time And I just can't see a thing How much time have I wasted? All I hear is your singing I never say goodbye All that was left was my string It was going to be all mine Say hello to your king Come dance with me as a ghost 'Cause I'll soon be gone The empty cradle is yours Hey, sister Set my doll down there I ask myself in the water "Why me?" Over and over and over again The empty cradle is not mine right now Don't you think that is unfair? Where is my wear? Where is my bear? Where is… Hey, are you listening? Come on now, the ball is about to start We sing and dance It's like a castle in here We go around and round and round And round and round and round And remember this time When you're on your deathbed It's about time I left Come to the place where I'm buried And take my tears instead And one more thing, keep my grave clean Oh, after I sank into the womb The empty cradle is yours Hey, sister Set my doll down there I ask myself in the water "Why me?" Over and over and over again The empty cradle is not mine right now Don't you think that is unfair? Where is my wear? Where is my bear? Where is… Hey, are you listening? The empty cradle is yours Hey, sister The empty cradle is not mine right now And my soul cries out “That is not fair!” 'Cause this was mine Until I died No, this is mine
