What Child Is This
T.R.U.T.H Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I sleep with a light on these days
To make sure that my dreams, stay in their place
A nightmare took freedom and a goal to kill pain
So being alone makes me wonder
If I’ll stay sane
Time is just a resource I can spend any day
Nothing is left to harvest when seasons drop dead
This is what it all got to
I stopped sending you
Voice messages
Cause I didn’t feel alone
Now I reap what I sow
Is this what it all got to?
Går ut, ett litet tag
Hoppas vädret är bättre idag
Ser tre små barn
Inte normalt att va
Quarantined on the sidewalk
Hör vad dom säger, men förstår inte ett ord
Brustna hjärtan öppnas, och man ser var dom slog
Ådrarna lyser, så såren ska läka fort
Is this what it all got to?
This is what it all got to
This is what it all got to




This is what it all got to
Förlåtelse
