Lullaby (HRT! Version)

This one goes out to the monster Underneath my bed Due to recent events I was reminded Of the simple times we've had I know we haven't spoken for far too long But I'm reaching out cause I need you Cause growing up has gone all wrong Cause nightmares used to be so easy But now they haunt me as I lie awake Daydreams can no longer save me Cause I'm lying wondering how much more I can take We've got a new plague to deal with And history repeats some more They emphasize the evergrowing divide Between the rich and poor Same tragedies different time and place And even if it shouldnt concern me It hits close to home in any case Cause nightmares used to be so easy But now they haunt me as I lie awake And daydreams can no longer save me Cause I'm lying wondering how much more I can take Cause I'm feeling like that little kid Throwing a fit Screaming how none of this is fair So won't you sing me A lullaby With your teeth laid bare And I can't afford silence Nor can I handle the noise And I can't seem to drown it out With my own toys And the world waking up Has been a bitter pill Cause the best I felt in ages Was the day the earth stood still Cause nightmares used to be so easy But now they haunt me as I lie awake And daydreams can no longer save me Cause I'm lying wondering how much more I can take Cause I'm feeling like that little kid Throwing a fit Screaming how none of this is fair So won't you sing me A lullaby With your teeth laid bare
