Go ahead, judge me. Just remember to be perfect the rest of your life.


Hush my child

Close your eyes

Be not afraid

Of the storm outside

Sleep my child

Do not be afraid

Though the rain beats harsh

Against the window pane

Rest little child

You're in my embrace

I promise forever

I will keep you safe

I love you my child

Through the thick and the thin

With every brave deed

With every sin

Shh, my small child

The storm can't hurt you

But I'll share a secret

Once, I was afraid too

I promise little child

As you grow

You will learn there is

So much you don't know

But for right now, child

As you close your eyes

Listen to the rain

Falling from the sky

And be not afraid

For I am right here

Drift off to sleep

And cry no more tears
