Dec 2010
Now I lay me down to sleep,
I pray for you my soul to keep.
And should I die before I wake,
I pray for you my soul to take.

I'll let my wrists run red with pain,
I pray my tears will be washed by rain.
And should I lie in a pool of blood,
I pray on my grave you'll leave a rose bud.

My eyes will cry so many tears,
I pray it'll end in a few years.
And should I die, my dear love,
I pray your eyes will search above.
I realize the first stanza is a childrens prayer but I edited it a little bit.
