INSOMNIAC LULLABYE

There’s a darkness on the land
There’s a shakin’ in your hand
There’s a war in your head, and the road up ahead
Is filled with rusty tin cans
The night is as dark as the night
Since the man in the moon shut his eyes
And the demons of the day all come out to play
The insomniac lullabye

All the ghosts of the past
Have breached the wall at last
They all gather ‘round without a chair to sit down
As they wait for you to lose your grasp
There’s a mask upon the sky
In the field where the children cry
Then gather in a ring, and all start to sing
The insomniac lullabye

All the care that you gave
Lies piled by the one you couldn’t save
And the skeleton trees flap their hands in the breeze
As the dead dig themselves from their graves
The vultures go soaring by
Dropping their bones as they fly
Into the tormented minds of the ones left behind
By the insomniac lullabye

All of the love you refused somehow
You sure could use it now, you sure could use it now

Regrets are beating a drum
As over the hill they come
They all hover there like unanswered prayers
With no trace of where they once came from
Even the darkest night
Is fractured by starlight
It glimmers and fades, then you join the parade
Of the insomniac lullabye

All of the love we refused somehow
We sure could use it now, we sure could use it now

The blade is cutting deep
Into the membrane of your sleep
There’s sand in your eyes, but you still can’t recognize
Your only choice is to fall or to leap
You don’t ask the question why
‘Cause you don’t get no reply
So you don’t say a word, ‘cause it all goes unheard
Except the insomniac lullabye
