Lullaby of a Little Black Bird

Little black bird, sing me a lullaby
Swaying on a branch like the wind in leaves
I want to die, yet I can't even cry
Please just take away all my pain and griefs

I'm tired of watching the world go 'round
Burning with a light brighter then the stars
While I know I'm not crying, safe and sound
My little black bird, has all new scars

Like a stolen kiss, sweet and innocent
The light shines down, taking me home again
Death and despair, take out another rent
My soul whispers out a last breath, "Amen"

Now my little black bird has stopped singing
As darkness has consumed a young being
