Assemblage 23 - Lullaby Lyrics
May you find solace in the gentle arms of sleepDespite the wolves outside your doorIn time you will see them all as harmlessAnd their idle threats easy to ignoreAnd if ever fate should choose to smite youStand your ground, never walk awayPlease don't ever let the world defeat youDon't get buried in its decayAs you drift into the gauzy realm of dreamsMay you take comfort in the thought that you are safeFor it only takes a fraction of a secondFor all of this to changeCHORUSReturn to meWhen slumber's fog has liftedReturn to meStronger than beforeAs you sink beneath the soothing streams of timeMay you be thankful that you had another dayFor there comes a time when each of us will enterA sleep from which we will never wakeAnd if ever fate should choose to smite youStand your ground, never walk awayPlease don't ever let the world defeat youDon't get buried in its decayClose your eyes now, if only for a momentFor it's time you get some restThe wolves are gone and nothing here can harm youLet go of your fragile consciousness(CH)
