Loaded Dice Lullaby #SUNOVERSE

[Spoken (soft, close-mic)] “Hey… hey. It’s okay. I’m here now. You’re not alone.” [Verse 1] The weight feels heavy tonight Chance dealt you some loaded dice Listen close and come near I’ll tell you what you need to hear [Verse 2] The cards are dealt, the night is long But you’ll see the morning come Things might not be okay But everything finds its way [Pre-Chorus] Lay your head down Close your eyes We’ll try again At sunrise [Chorus] Hush now, darling, don’t choose tonight Let the dice decide overnight Win or lose, you’ll wake somehow You don’t have to know just now [instrumental] [Verse 3] Tomorrow can wait by the door You don’t have to answer it now Even endings get tired, you know Let them rest, just like you’re allowed [Bridge] If the future feels too loud If the numbers won’t sit still Let them scatter on the floor They don’t bite when you’re this still I’ll keep watch while you dream Hold the board, pause the scene [Chorus] Hush now, darling, don’t choose tonight Let the dice decide overnight Win or lose, you’ll wake somehow You don’t have to know just now [Outro / Soft Spoken → Sung] [Spoken, barely above a whisper] “Sleep… I’ll keep the dice for you.” [Gently sung] Close your eyes, the night is kind Leave the maybes here with mine When you wake, we’ll see somehow But you don’t have to know just now
