Lullaby

You've had a hard day
all work and no play
the deadlines and tension
there's no need to mention
that sleep seem so far away
You lay down your head
Toss and turn in bed
Your wheels keep on spinning
your night's just beginning
another day to dread
but close your eyes baby
I'll sing you a lullaby darling
so go on and dream for dreaming sake
and I'll be here waiting when you awake
no i can't garuntee that it'll get you through
but at least take comfort that I love you
Strands across your face
I brush them away
the fears in your breathing
I hear them all leaving
your heart slows down its pace
Your troubles can't consume you
if you do not let them
Your worries will not help you
best to just forget them
and I cannot protect you
from the darkness in your mine
I can hold your hand
I can tell you
everything's going to be all right
Blankets they beckon
yeah they're warm I reckon
Your eyelids are falling
now dreamland is calling
you're tranquil in seconds
this is your lullaby baby
to ease your troubled mind honey
and I'll be here waiting when you awake
so go on and dream for dreaming sake
no I can't garuntee it will get you through
but at least take comfort that I love you

Crow Song

I am Plagued by an itch from the bite of a flea
that came here on the back of a crow
the bird that belonged to my one true love
and why she sent it I don't know
It could've been that time that I stayed out all night
drinking with a few of my friends
With each little bite there's this feeling that this might
well and truly be the end
That bird he came forward for his just reward
in the form of my right eye
no knowledge did I gain no wisdom in trade
just left here wondering why
I did spend in bed that one weekend
with her sister and her best friend
with each piece they take there's this feeling I can't shake
that this may well and truly be the end
rope binds my hand and irons on my feet
but my guts are what's keeping me here
I know when it is full she will have to move the bowl
and poison will mix with my tears
I thought this was done when I locked her in the trunk
and drove down past the river bend
though the car sunk in the lake there's this feeling I can't shake
that this may well and truly be my end

With Me
02:54

If you want I will shake spears
but I will never cross your sword
I will always mince my words
when I think you need to hear
Lying still your back is sore
Pressures cause the fog to clear
Try to doubt what you hold dear
as your dress falls to the floor
Making up a new mask every day
Make it to face your task in your way
and all it is that I ask is you lay
in your own skin
In your dreams you're dressed in white
Miranda waiting on the sand
a Fevered hope for Ferdinand
and a wasted wish that Will was right
You awake and take my hand
Frame your face as my first sight
Fingers twining left in right
as I try to understand
Making up a new mask every day
Make it to face your task in your way
and all it is that I ask is you lay
in your own skin
