two o'clock in the morning central standard time
i came over to sing you a nursery rhyme
this sorrow's heft is all that's left of the girl you were
there's no letters on the burning page anymore
and i will sing you to sleep
yes, i will sing you to sleep
the open vault of heaven reaches down for you
the sweeping curve of the earth swings around for you
and the empty dome calling welcome home for an epitaph
and a bitter pill, it is sweeter still when it made you laugh
and i will sing you to sleep
yes, i will sing you to sleep
pretend to defend you again
i will sing you to sleep
