Sing me a lullaby to sleep my dear

For your palm has awakened all my fears

The touch of death has left essence on me

Sing me to sleep don't take away my glee

My fate was sealed when thunder met the snow

Across the sky then flew a blackened crow

Then followed him a swarm of bees to sting

The porcelain heart of mine in full swing

My swollen skin could not bear some more pain

But down came your wrath along with the rain

Sing me a lullaby to sleep, I'm beat

For I have faced the winter and the heat

Be gentle to me now, I've paid my dues

Sing me to sleep you've got nothing to lose
