Hush, little child
Put your head down and sleep
As i watch you dream,
As i hear you dream.

Hush, little child
Put your head down and weep
As i watch you dream,
As i hear you dream.



Let them make a fool out of us,
Strangle us, hurt us,
Tell us it's all in the name of love,
All in the name of their god
Let them silence us, enslave us,
Tell us they are our lords
And make us, to break us,
Into the hollow of our ground
Push us back till the edge,
Till we scatter and break down
No more will we scream our names,
But a deathly song of dread and cold
Lured into their empty steel cage,
Prisoned in the depth of our soul,
No more will we tread the weather,
Afraid of the storm and the rain
There shall be no more respite,
As we fall in an abyss all over again
Falling apart in every breath,
Too brittle to carry our own scars
Across this ocean of hurt and despair,
We've trapped our own hearts
For them to rule us all,
To be the kings and queens of us
And create us our world,
With their every touch
Empty vessels to fill with fear,
A pet in need of a monster
To be led straight into a pit
We'll never be our own masters,
For we blind fold ourselves
To hide from the world within,
Take the blade and kiss it
And Make our tears on our skin
To remind us who we are,
What we are, to them and the world
To feel like the king himself,
To find ourselves in gems and pearls
And breed our fears and pain,
To be swept off our feet in chains
Hanging by a noose,
To bleed till everything drains
And be empty of our conscience,
Our thoughts will never be our own
No matter how far we may run,
Our steps will forever be alone
But they will always lead us,
To find ourselves
Far away in the wonderland,
We'll make our home.




Hush, little child
Put your head down and sleep
As i watch you dream,
As i hear you dream.

Hush, little child
Put your head down and weep
As i watch you dream,
As i hear you dream.
