Helpless Child

Now, you be the mother, and

I'll be your fool

I'll hide myself deep inside

Your crimson pool

The muddy water runs

Beneath your folds

You won't let me breathe

You won't let me go

Now, you be the stranger, and

I'll be the white-skinned son

You'll blacken my innocence

With sugar and opium

The children were suffocating

Down in your damp cave

And you were the mother, and

I was the sleeping slave

Protect me from violence

Hold me in your cool lips

You drug me with kindness

So I can pretend I exist

Now, you be the only child

I'll suck on your breast

You'll feed me with gasoline

I'll burn my name in your head

Ah-ah-ah

Ah-ah-ah

Ah-ah-ah, ah, ah

Ah-ah-ah
