Babylon A.D. - Redemption lyrics

A young girl's eyes are filled with pain She suffers from years of guilt and shame She sleeps at night afraid of the dark You know she fears always the tapping of daddy's knock He says he's there to love her He'll only do what's best and right And then he starts to hold her He touches her skin, she prays for redemption Nobody sees behind her smile Nobody hears the screams of a wounded child Her secret burns inside her soul You know she quit fighting and built her heart of stone Another night is closing She hears his footsteps at the door His pa**ion hungry for her A fire so hot, it shattered her innocence Take my burning hands I want redemption Show me who I am Give me redemption Help me to understand God, help me find my redemption Her daddy smells of smoke and gin A prisoner of the lust that feed within And mother's face is black and bruised A lonely broken victim of daddy's rule And when the world is sleeping A voice is heard in deep despair The sound of endless weeping A desolate child whose sanity's questioned Take my burning hands I want redemption Show me who I am Give me redemption Help me to understand God, help me find my redemption Give me redemption Well, I need redemption, oh, yeah Redemption A young girl's eyes are filled with pain She suffers, forever her life is changed Take my burning hands I want redemption Show me who I am Give me redemption Help me to understand God, help me find my redemption Take my burning hands Well, I want redemption Show me who I am Give me redemption Help me to understand God, help me find my redemption Redemption My redemption
