Trans-Siberian Orchestra - Who Is This Child

Album: Beethoven's Last Night (2000)

Lyrics:

WHO IS THIS CHILD

THAT I'VE NEVER SEEN BEFORE

WHO IS THIS CHILD

THAT I'VE NOT SEEN TILL THIS DAY

WHO DARES TO FALL ASLEEP

OUTSIDE MY DOOR

IF WE SHOULD WAIT AWHILE

I'M SURE SHE'LL GO AWAY

TO BE INVOLVED WITH THIS

WOULD SURELY NOT BE WISE

FOR IN THE FINAL WORD

SHE MEANS NOTHING TO ME

I LEARNED THE TRICK IS

THAT WE JUST AVOID HER EYES

AND THE QUESTION

WHAT SHE MEANS TO ...

WHAT IS THIS LIFE

THERE WILL BE OTHER LIVES

SOON TO ARRIVE

SURELY SOME WILL SURVIVE

SHE IS BUT ONE

AND THERE ARE MANY MORE

EACH THE SAME AS ANY OTHER

WHO IS THIS CHILD

WHAT DOES SHE MEAN TO ME

I CLOSE MY EYES

AND STILL HER FACE I SEE

SHE IS BUT ONE

HER KIND IS EVERYWHERE

CAN'T YOU SEE THERE'S NO WAY I SHOULD CARE

I NEED A MOMENT NOW

I HAVE TO CLEAR MY MIND

THERE IS A LIMIT LORD

JUST TO BEING KIND

THERE IS NO WAY IN LIFE

THAT EACH CHILD CAN BE SAVED

SHOULD I BE LOOKING WITH REGRET

AT EVERY GRAVE

THERE ARE NO GUARANTEES

IN LIFE SHE SHOULD BE WARNED

I'M NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR

THIS CHILD BEING BORN

I'M NOT RESPONSIBLE

IN ANY KIND OF WAY

FOR EVERY CHILD THAT LIFE CAN GATHER

WHAT IS THIS LIFE

THERE WILL BE OTHER LIVES

SOON TO ARRIVE

SURELY SOME WILL SURVIVE

SHE IS BUT ONE

AND THERE ARE MANY MORE

COULD THIS ONE LIFE REALLY MATTER

WHO IS THIS CHILD

WHAT DOES SHE MEAN TO ME

I CLOSE MY EYES

AND STILL HER FACE I SEE

SHE IS BUT ONE

HER KIND IS EVERYWHERE

CAN'T YOU SEE THERE'S NO WAY I SHOULD CARE

CAN YOU SEE IT IN THE NIGHT

CAN YOU FEEL THAT IT'S OUT THERE

IT'S THE ARCING OF A LIFE

AND IT'S HANGING IN THE AIR

THOUGH I TRY TO CLOSE MY EYES

AND PRETEND THAT I DON'T KNOW

IN MY HEART

I JUST CAN'T LET IT GO

THERE HAS TO BE ANOTHER WAY FOR ME

A WAY THAT LEADS FROM THIS INSANITY

A WAY THAT LEADS FROM MY DESTRUCTION IN THIS WAY

CAN YOU SEE IT IN THE NIGHT

CAN YOU FEEL THAT IT'S OUT THERE

IT'S THE ARCING OF A LIFE

AND IT'S HANGING IN THE AIR

THOUGH I TRY TO CLOSE MY EYES

AND PRETEND THAT I DON'T KNOW

IN MY HEART

I JUST CAN'T LET IT GO

Beautiful. Going to see TSO is a trip if you've never been. In the crowd you've got old school rockers wearing Savatage shirts from the 80's and people in three piece suits and everything in between. Where else will you find such a diverse group of people? A really fun experience for sure.

If I could tell them I would tell them that song was an inspiration to me to keep following my dreams no matter what the cost would be I would still follow my own path in life

I love that part at the end where he screams, "Can't you see there's no way I should care?!" really loudly, like he's trying to deny the truth- which is what he says directly afterwords. It's kind of funny and sweet at the same time, because he finally gets it in the end. =)

Who is this child that it's my basement? He wandered in here! I did not take his clothes off! Why am I being charged with multiple accounts or murder, rape and kidnap? I have no clue where this little boy came from!

Such a powerful song and story in every way. This is what real music is about, expressing emotions in beautiful, meainingful ways. Love the world even if it doesn't love you back. You will be loved on the otherside for doing so. Keep making beautiful music TSO.
