The Dreadful Hours Lyrics - The Dreadful Hours - My Dying Bride

Mother will you take me down? 

I have become so afraid 

Mother please, please take me down 

Sorry, your boy is not brave 

Child just hold on. Night will soon be gone 

Sleep if you can. But watch your father's hand 

We do not want you. No-body loves you 

Father of the dark. Tonight will greet you 

God in heaven, can you hear me 

Help me Oh Lord. They're coming for me 

Mother warned me. Father scorned me 

Oh my God No. Now I hear him 

I claim your life on this night 

within sight of your own God 

The silence, the waiting then the pain 

Oh child, sleep will be here soon 

Your life has only ever been shame 

And so young boy, my hand brings doom 

Child, won't you awake. Father has gone 

Child, please come awake. Please my tiny son
