A Lullaby For A Broken Girl
The sky is dark; Clouds cover the moon
The clouds disapear and I wonder how soon
Her life will slip away.
Can she hold on one more day?
A limp body curled up on top of this bed.
A mop of gold hair covers her fear-filled head.
Nightmares fly through her imagination.
Don't wake her up.
She's at peace in hibernation.
This world has left her alone,
So young, but forced to act so old.
Sleep soundly, dream deeply,
Slip slowly away from these big city lights.
A short break from reality
Escape into the night.
Let this melody melt the clouds of gray.
Open the skies above,
Let it rain down love.
Let this song, rock you to sleep all night long
And may tomorrow bring some new hope.
I wish I could take all the pain away.
Wipe her eyes and wash those salt streams from her face.
I'd do anything to make her smile.
See her face light up like a child.
Running through life, half blind, she fell.
It was a long way down, unconcious now.
She thought she'd been dealt too much.
Loosing him once was hard enough.
But he couldn't just let her be.
Die slowly in a numbing dream.
Sleep soundly, dream deeply,
Slip slowly away from these big city lights.
A short break from reality
Escape into the night.
Let this melody melt the clouds of gray.
Open the skies above.
Let it rain love.
Let this song, rock you to sleep all night long
And may tomorrow bring some new hope.
The sky remains dark,
The clouds recover moon,
The stars disapear
Along with the light in her room.
I knew it would be soon.
Just a matter of time before we all lie in peace too.
The clouds disapear and I wonder how soon
Her life will slip away.
Can she hold on one more day?
