Lullaby for the Dying

The words are blowing away
In the stormy winds
Tryin' hard to find a way
The spirit is breaking free
As the angels sing to me
The sweetest lullaby
Lullaby for the dying

Memories of trouble & strife
As I close my eyes to sleep
And wake in my afterlife
Dreams never meant to be
As the angels sing to me
The sweetest lullaby
Lullaby for the dying

Led by the failing sense
Filled with emptiness
Corroded by innocence
Stop feeling hollow and heavy
As the angels sing to me
The sweetest lullaby
Lullaby for the dying

Silent promises made
In comforts of desperation
Unveiled now by the breeze
Recollections I fail to see
As the angels sing to me
The sweetest lullaby
Lullaby for the dying

A sense of deja vu
As I journey inward of me
On a flight of fancy that’s true
While I leave behind just me
As the angels sing to me
The sweetest lullaby
Lullaby, for the dying
