PUT THE KIDDIES TO BED

She came to him
In the cold night
Heavenly star
With bright blue eyes

He was down again
With suicide thoughts
A special bullet
Was picked out for him

And him alone

Hard in stoney heart
Til her touch calmed him
It's love at first sight
Til the devil calls

Picture perfect
True family
The babies cry
And tragedy

Begins

He loved her once upon a time
But now the patience running thin
The love he felt slowly dying
And the future is fading away

Yes, my dear, put the kiddies to bed
Now, my dear, I want you dead
I love you, I hate you and I need you
To go away

There's a knife in my hand
There's a knife in your heart
There's no god to lead you
There's no heaven for you

My dear, I put the kiddies to bed
With a couple cyanide pills
They can sleep just like the angels
To take me to Hell

The sickening of love
Had bred a cancer
The flickering candles
Echoes of silence
