what you doing out in the night time?
why'd you call me on the phone?
your mama can't solve your problems?
when's daddy ever get home?

so you did your little golden cry
in the middle of a suicide

don't close your eyes
don't close your eyes
don't sing your last lullaby

with no one there to hold you
no one hears your screams
you live life up and down now
nightmares are your dreams

i know it's lonely when you're hanging round
but don't you take it lying down no no

hold on hold on tight
i'll make everything all right
wake up don't go to sleep
i'll pray the lord
your soul to keep

don't close your eyes
don't close your eyes
don't sing your last lullaby

don't close your eyes
don't close your eyes
don't sing your last lullaby
