Lullaby

Here I am in the cradle.
Sing me your sweet tune.
Cast a dream in my mind
as I fall asleep tonight.

My life has been nothing but hell,
so take this out for once.
When you take me in your arms,
release the negativity inside me.

The world as it falls into itself.
I feel the sweetness of the dream.
The look upon the eyes.
let the cradle rock me to sleep.

As the world crumbles beneath me,
I taste the sugar in the misery.
The beauty which I can see,
gives the song a true meaning.

Here we are beside the cradle
letting the dreams come true.
The love sang in the lullaby
has blessed me with you.
