The Ninth Hour Musical - Lullaby lyrics
[The Ninth Hour Musical - Lullaby lyrics]
That recently returned to me
You took me to the river
You taught me how to swim
And when my legs grew tired
You sang for me a lullaby
To help me catch my breath
How did it go again?
"The moon is new the water's dark
The sun has died but, I am here
My darling dear come sit by mother's side
The stars are black the air is still
The sky is wide but, I am here
My darling dear don't worry, dry your eyеs"
Mother, it occurred to me
Thе lesson of this memory
To swim against the current
I never learned to float
Mother, oh this tragedy
My life has made a mess of me
With all this wasted energy
I could've built a boat
"The moon is new the water's dark
The sun has died but, I am here
My darling dear come sit by mother's side
The stars are black the air is still
The sky is wide but, I am here
My darling dear don't worry, dry your eyes"
Mother, all my life you taught me
People can't be trusted
And we have to fight to stay alive
We'll always be the enemy
Oh, eye for eye and limb for limb
The blood that I've been swimming in
Oh, mother, I've grown tired of this
Mother I've grown tired of this
There's beauty and there's empathy
Some people might've cared for me
I hid my heart and stayed inside
Instead of moving with the tide
Oh, mother, I've grown tired of this
Mother I've grown tired of this
Mother I've grown tired of this
Mother I've grown tired of this
Grown tired of this
"The moon is new the water's dark
The sun has died but, I am here
My darling dear come sit by mother's side
The stars are black the air is still
The sky is wide but, I am here
My darling dear don't worry, dry your eyes"
