The Orphan

Most wonderful time of year
Suddenly shows its hidden tears
Depression reveals its pain

It's never been so close
Such a tremendous loss
The blood will leave eternal stains

The image of those innocent lives
Children's bodies stabbed with knives
Forever burned in my brain

Once a house so full of love
Now filled with unbearable loss
Christmas will never be the same
And the only one survived
I'll protect the rest of my life
Christmas will never be the same

So glad one soul survived
Baby child, still alive
But the questions will remain

Will we ever understand?
Your depressive blood-soaked hand
And why you stole them away

Once a house so full of love
Now filled with unbearable loss
Christmas will never be the same
And the only one survived
I'll protect the rest of my life
Christmas will never be the same

I whispered to treat him well
Maybe it's better not to tell
So, the orphan won't feel the pain
