Tonight's Final Lullaby

 V1:
Father to daughter- My dear little angel,
Don’t make another sound tonight,
Because daddy has to go away for a little while.
Don’t worry I’ll be fine,
And I’ll see you in time,
Hush now my baby,
This is tonight’s final lullaby. (Kiss on her head) (I love you)

Chorus:
(Soft piano and drums) (Lights go off) (Door shuts)
OOooo, OOooo, OOOOooo.

V2:
Father to son- My dear little soldier,
Please don’t hate me for what I’ve done,
Please don’t hate me for what I have to do now,
For this is the only way,
For this to be (Piano louder, faster) for the moment, my little soldier,
Protect your little sister
Help your mother,
Because this is tonight’s final lullaby. (Kiss on his head) (I love you)

Chorus: (Piano, guitar, drums louder, faster) (steps downstairs) (car turns on, drives away)
OOOOoo, OOoooo, OOOOOooo, OoOooOOO! (Guitar solo as years pass by)

V3: (Back to slow piano, guitar, drums.)
Daughter to father (letter)
-Dear Father,
I never knew you,
I never got the chance to love you,
For you walked out when I was so young.
Why did you leave daddy?
Why did you leave us all behind?
I’ve always wanted a father,
And through all the stories mommy tells me,
You’re not the father for me!!! (Loud guitars, Drums, Bass and piano)

Chorus:
Daughter and son- You left us all behind,
For your own personal gain,
You call yourself a father,
You’re just a bastard to me!!! (OOooo, OOooo, OoOooOOO!)




V4:
Son to father (letter) - Dear Father,
The last thing I remember of you is,
That song you sang to me,
All those years ago.
You told me to protect my sister,
And help my mother,
And I did just that,
Too bad you weren’t there to see me do it.
You left us so early,
Without remorse,
Except for that song you sang to me and my sister,
You don’t deserve to be a father,
Or even hold that title.
For the first two years after you left,
I stood outside waiting for you to come up on the driveway,
But you never did,
YOU BASTARD, HOW COULD YOU LEAVE US!!!
Wait, don’t answer that, I don’t care,
For all I care you could have died in a hole somewhere.
Goodbye father, bastard.
Consider this tonight’s final lullaby.

Chorus:
Daughter and son- You left us all behind,
For your own personal gain,
You call yourself a father,
You’re just a bastard to me!!! (OOooo, OOooo, OoOooOOO!) (3X)
(Slow end)
