Bless The Child (Live) by Nightwish

"I was born amidst the purple waterfalls.
I was weak, yet not unblessed.
Dead to the world. (1)__________ for the journey.
One night I dreamt a white rose withering,
A (2)______________ drowning a lifetime loneliness.
I (3)____________ all my future. Relived my past.
And witnessed the (4)____________ of the beast"

Where have all the feelings gone?
Why has all the laughter ceased?
Why am I loved only (5)________ I'm gone?
Gone back in (6)________ to bless the child

How can I ever feel again?
Given the chance (7)__________ I return?
Why am I loved (8)________ when I'm gone?
Gone back in (9)________ to bless the child
Think of me long enough to (10)________ a memory
Come bless the (11)__________ one more time

I've never felt so alone in my life
As I drank from a cup which was counting my time
There's a poison (12)________ in this cup of Man
To drink it is to (13)____________ the left hand path

Why am I loved only (14)________ I'm gone?
Gone back in time to bless the child
Think of me (15)________ (16)____________ to make a memory
Come bless the child one (17)________ time
Think of me (18)________ (19)____________ to (20)________ a memory
Come bless the child one more time

"Where have all the feelings gone?
Why is the deadliest sin - to love as I (21)__________ you?
Now unblessed, homesick in time,
Soon to be freed from care, from human pain.
My (22)________ is the most bitter truth:
Time (23)________ us but with earth & dust,
And a dark, silent grave.
Remember, my child: Without innocence
The cross is (24)________ iron,
Hope is (25)________ an illusion
& Ocean Soul's nothing but a name...
The (26)__________ bless (27)________ & (28)________ thee forever"
