Shawn Brandon - Acoustic guitar, Arrangement, Engineer
Stewart Tsuji - Vocals & Lyrics

Hush now child, the dawn is breaking
I’ll be coming home soon
Don’t worry child, the world is safe now
I will never leave you alone

Frightened child, there is so much you need to know

Shackled to your youth
Silence begs for truth
There’s no needle that can mend
Take this my friend
The numbness needs to end
Every tear - a memory excised
It drains from your eyes

She pulls and pulls a thin thread set to unravel
She uses her illusions well
Her soul is faded - the light is almost out
There’s no one left to tell

Frightened child – please don’t be afraid

Shackled to your youth
Silence begs for truth
In darkness you can mend
A spark can be a friend if you let it in
Every flicker it re-ignites
To bring fever to the fight

Shelter your lions
Don’t demonise them
Let the echoes roar

Frightened child, now do you understand?

These shackles are your youth
In silence you witness truth
But in silence you can mend
Be the light at darkness’ end and rise again
The road is long my friend
Let us walk together then

Don’t worry child, the world is safe now x
