"Precious Child" lyrics

"Precious Child"

My life just flashed before my eyes
My watch is broken
Am I alive or have I died?

In all ways I try to remain a child
I lie
In all ways I try to remain a child
I strive

I never wanted any of this
I never wanted anything at all
I only thought it would be a high time

But in all ways I try to stay in the light
I lie
Each time I hide my heart in my mind
I cry out

Don't let me die
I'm afraid to die
Though it's always right before my eyes
Is it goodbye?
