Sara Hammouri - Sweet Release

Little child why are you crying?
What has caused you pain?
What has hurt you oh so deeply?
What has made you become insane?
Yes young woman you see the teardrops.
You feel the sting of a loveless life.
You live in fear each waking moment,
And tremble as you sleep each night.
Oh my lady now you look back.
You think of what you have become.
Can you tell me now, why your shaking?
Tell me why this fear began.
What has happened to make you bitter?
To make you feel like you are alone again?
Can I help you through this?
Can I Take the pain you've known?
I see the scars of hidden torture.
The light of pain behind your eyes.
I see you longing for future.
Where you no longer have to hide.
Only I can help you through this.
The pain I give brings sweet release
The cut you see will soon be missing,
And all you'll have is perfect peace.
You see my shining wooden handle,
And the gleaming of my silver blade.
I feel you tremble while you hold me.
Then I taste the blood you gave
