The Cursed Ones by Stephanie Pui-Mun Law

Magic, baby, I have none
To stand and wave a crystal wand
Undo the past, undo the pain
Make your soul unripped again

Erase the scars, take back the grief
Wipe out the jagged memories
No magic for the little boy
Innocence stolen, trust destroyed

But if I could I would and
you would be free then
you would be happy then and
you could begin again

With incantations, archane spells
I'd sing your tortured soul from hell
Release it from the Beast who owns it
Send him back into his own pit

Magic, baby, I have none
To heal what was torn from that little one
Little child who cried in the night
I see that little child inside
...still crying in the night
But if I could I would and
you would be free then
you would be happy then and
you could begin again

No magic, baby, just my touch
You need that healing now so much
Hands to sooth the man to sleep
Arms to rock the boy to dreams (so sweet)

Lips to kiss the scars that brand you
You know how much I understand you
I was there too...
You are me I am you

If I could I would say the spells
Bind the beast back into hell and
you would be free then and
you would be happy then and
you could begin again and
maybe you could love me then

No magic baby
but maybe love is
magic enough.
