Lyrics for Still A Child

The day I was born, your shadow fell across my mother's breast When I opened my eyes, you coloured my mind Every move I make, is by your desire Every move I make, is by your hand only Now I'm still a child, but I'm closer to death Cover me in roses, gently touch me while I sleep When I dream I'll dream of drowning in a pool of scented blood Now I'm still a child, but I'm closer to death You said "take this it's yours" so I've kept it locked away Now you're curled up beneath tme in a pool of your own blood Now I'm still a child, but I'm closer to death
