Lullaby

Rain drops falling on my window
used to sing mw to sleep
now its the tears that i weep
lying here determined to sleep
I close my eyes and all I see is your ghost
When your love is what I want the most 
Lying in my bed trying to sleep
Through those scars that run so deep
Thing about the little lost girl in my past
All I know that she wont last 
So wipe my tears
Sing me to sleep
Fight my fear 
And be my drug 
Although I wont survive for long 
Say good-bye and feed me a lie 
And this white lie is my lullaby
