The lyrics flow through my veins

A sweet kind of poison

A way to get lost and give up control

To give in and let go

I find my eyelids dropping

As my body slouches

The sun drapes itself around me

A warm blanket

But it drops

lower

and lower


Now the moon is in the sky

Singing a set lullaby

Goodnight dear child

Stay still dear child

Till the angels come calling

Because your rent on this earth

Is long overdue


Goodnight
