Rock a bye baby, dont cry too much.

Mother's in the bedroom, blood dripping down.

Mother is sick, baby won't stop.

Mother is hopeless, baby is hoarse.

Baby is hungry, mother won't stop.

Baby is dying, slowly inside.

Baby is numb, baby is broken.

Baby hears mother screaming, screaming at nothing.

Baby grows up hating life, baby doesn't understand why this happened to baby.

Baby is crying, all dressed in black.

Mother is dead, buried that day.

She was so sick, baby is broken inside and out.

Baby is done.
