The Hand That Rocks the Cradle - 2024 Remaster
Young life, too young
Who's eyes are choking
Can't rest, can't sleep
For dreams that set you falling
Don't feel the hunger
Can't drink no holy water
No light in these eyes
No place for dreams at all tonight
When the hand that rocks the cradle
Is the hand that holds the knife
And the knife that cuts the cable
Kills the spark that feeds the life
No grave could be deep enough
Down to Hell if we were able
The veil of life was pushed aside
By the hand that rocks the cradle
The oath you take is sacred
To save not steel a life
Like the ending of the sweetest soul
That looked through human eyes
No grave could be deep enough
Down to hell if we were able
The veil of life was pushed aside
By the hand that rocks the cradle, yeah
Young life, too young
Who's eyes are choking
Can't rest, can't sleep
For dreams that set you falling
Don't feel the hunger
Can't drink no holy water
No light in these eyes
No place for dreams at all tonight
Yeah
Yeah
Oh, yeah
It's the hand that rocks the cradle
It's the hand that steals the life
It's the hand that rocks the cradle
It's the hand that steals the life
Who's eyes are choking
Can't rest, can't sleep
For dreams that set you falling
Don't feel the hunger
Can't drink no holy water
No light in these eyes
No place for dreams at all tonight
When the hand that rocks the cradle
Is the hand that holds the knife
And the knife that cuts the cable
Kills the spark that feeds the life
No grave could be deep enough
Down to Hell if we were able
The veil of life was pushed aside
By the hand that rocks the cradle
The oath you take is sacred
To save not steel a life
Like the ending of the sweetest soul
That looked through human eyes
No grave could be deep enough
Down to hell if we were able
The veil of life was pushed aside
By the hand that rocks the cradle, yeah
Young life, too young
Who's eyes are choking
Can't rest, can't sleep
For dreams that set you falling
Don't feel the hunger
Can't drink no holy water
No light in these eyes
No place for dreams at all tonight
Yeah
Yeah
Oh, yeah
It's the hand that rocks the cradle
It's the hand that steals the life
It's the hand that rocks the cradle
It's the hand that steals the life
