Lyrics for Only Child

A raven holding to narrow wrist Pull it tight Clothes are torn and the body twists A single light The worse the struggle the more you fail Strands fall down The more you like it the more it hurts Why stop now? An only child A winning smile A killing trial A broken rib and a bloody lip All in hell The fire's gone and your pride is stripped A private hell You never know why it is this way Leave here now Live through this on another day Tonight sleep sound An only child A winning smile A killing trial
