A cutter's lullaby (not mine)

Go to sleep ,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,

Dream of that blood trickling down,

And wake up just before you drown

The moonlight's shinning off your tears

As you bleed out your own worst fears

So tonight when you start to cry

Whisper the cutter's lullaby:

Hushabye 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

Rockabye 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 we'll come baby, straight back to hell
