Go to sleep, and close your eyes
And dream of broken butterflies,
That tore their wings against a thorn,
You know the pain that they have borne.

Silver metal shine so bright,
Scarlet blood that feels so right,
Dreams of that blood trickling down,
And wake up just before you drown.

The moonlights shining of your tears,
As you bleed out your own worst fears,
So tonight when you start to cry,
Whisper the cutters' lullaby:

Hush-a-bye baby, you're almost dead,
You don't have a pulse and your pillow is red,
Your family hates you, your friends let you bleed,
Sleep tight with a knife 'cause it's all that you need.

Rock-a-bye baby, broken and scarred,
You didn't know that life would be this hard,
Time to end the pain that you hid so well,
And down will come baby, straight back to hell.
