July 19

Go to sleep, little child
And have what might be your last dream

Lay still, and don't make a sound
When the monster comes to you, I hope you don't scream

As you close your eyes, don't forget to smile
The world that awaits you is cruel

Don't be scared, the monster is doing you a favour
As you grow, it gets more brutal

Leave this earth in peace
Now that you're not yet broken

Don't forget to laugh a genuine laugh
Now that your heart isn't frozen

Go to sleep, little child
To wake up tomorrow, is totally your choice

But if it ever gets hard
Remember you can turn off all the noise
