Текст (слова) песни: Savatage - One Child

One child stood before the altar
One child stood out in the rain
One child spent his time imagining
And I dont believe hes coming home again, home again, home a...

[chorus]
Right there in the earth, Ive been drawing a line
Im digging it deep, dont know if Ill find
A tunnel out so we all can be saved
If not, just take this earth and bury me, for this will be my grave

One child hid inside the darkness
One child never said a thing
One child closed his eyes and disappeared
But at night I still can hear him whispering, whispering, whisper...

[chorus]
Right there in the earth, Ive been drawing a line
Im digging it deep, dont know if Ill find
A tunnel out so we all can be saved
If not, just take this earth and bury me, for this will be my grave

[lead break/coda]
I will believe in you
If you still want me to
Or tell me Im on my own
There on the other side
Tell me the Pilates died
And were no longer alone

[bridge]
Take your answers and your promises, believe me I dont care
I have held on to your words until I found them only air
What good are your promises if you can always take them back?
Still, I hang on every word till my hands are bleeding

[coda]
I will believe in you
If you still want me to
Or tell me Im on my own
There on the other side
Tell me the Pilates died
And were no longer alone

[simultaneously]

I will believe in you
We had no choice but to stay and follow
If you still want me to
We have nothing left except tomorrow
Or tell me Im on my own
We have nothing left except what will be
There on the other side
What we need here are some real decisions
Tell me the Pilates died
While you only offer mindless visions
And were no longer alone
Visions that nobody else here can see
