The Killer Lullaby
Throughout the years you made me cry,
You made me feel like wanting to die,
You lied to me,
You tried your best to break me down making me hold you over my shoulders like I wouldn't fall.
You'd never come to my call, but you'd want me to come to yours.
Hush, hush
You can't sleep again for another night.
Turn off the light anyways and pretend you were as you try to ignore the glasses breaking,
The sounds of yelling,
The sounds of screaming and thrashing.
Hating my life for such a long time, but I need to unwind though for some reason I just can't seem to let go.
Put on a show for everyone why don't you.
Slap!,
Here we go another one coming on, no wait
Punch!,
Please stop, this is so unfair, but you don't care do you?.
Go ahead and ignore me maybe I won't really be here,
Maybe I could just runaway, I don't really have to stay.
Never tucked me in and wished me nor kissed me goodnight,
But instead chose to fight with me over nothing.
Killing me inside with every shot you got for me.
I've never asked why, but you said it was what was best for me.
This is the killer lullaby.
