Wintersleep

"hold me like a child
in your warm, warm arms
whisper parables
keep me safe from harm
oh, my sagging skin
oh, my burning sky
i will close my eyes
i will close my eyes
there was laughter once
there were pretty songs
pull the metal shards
thin my clotted blood
oh, my rotting skin
oh, my burning sky
i will close my eyes
i will close my eyes
"
