anna nalick
the lullaby singer
You say, "Baby turn the light out" But I can see there's something crying in your smile now Yeah, you used to be the glitter in the dirt And now you say it's just you feel a little dusty Why didn't anybody tell you that it ain't easy Life don't imitate reality TV I can see you tugging on a wishbone Angling an outcome Bones will only break there words But you don't know that it beats my heart To black and blue all over When you cry those tears Like paper cuts and iodine When you were here I couldn't find the words to say I'll be your lullaby singer I won't let you down I promise to try and try Lullaby, lullaby Lullaby, lullaby Panic is a shotgun I don't know if I can get you out of this one But you can call me up at twenty after midnight I'll stay on the line to talk you down and tuck you in Eyes wide open brighter than the candles On a cake you wasted wishes on when you were okay When you were here I couldn't find the words to say I'll be your lullaby singer I won't let you down I promise to try and try Lullaby, lullaby Lullaby, lullaby
