Dark Lullaby Hush now, darling, close your eyes, The moon has sharpened all its knives. The angels left without a sound, Now only shadows gather 'round. Sleep beneath the dying stars, Wear your scars like battle marks. Every ghost that knows your name Will sing you softly through the rain. Oh-oh, don't be afraid of the dark, It's been inside us from the start. Oh-oh, let the night pull you under, Like a beautiful disaster. Lay your head against the storm, Where broken hearts are reborn. The wolves are howling lullabies, Their voices sweet as your goodbyes. And if the heavens turn to ash, If every light fades out too fast, I'll be the silence in between, The fading echo in your dreams. Oh-oh, don't be afraid of the dark, It's been inside us from the start. Oh-oh, let the night pull you under, Like a beautiful disaster. Sleep now while the world decays, While the black tide steals the day. No need to fight, no need to run, Even nightmares need someone. So close your eyes and drift away, Into the arms of endless gray. The darkness knows your weary soul, And tonight, it will bring you home. Oh-oh, don't be afraid of the dark, It's been inside us from the start. Oh-oh, let the night pull you under, Like a beautiful disaster... Sleep, my love... Sleep, my ghost... Sleep where all the lost hearts go.
