LONESOME LULLABY

I listened to the whine for way too long.
Time for me to hear a different song.
I waited overtime for things to turn around.
Tired of waiting for it all to hit the ground.

You said you knew all about it,
What was right and what was wrong.
You pulled the wool over the eyes of everyone.
Maybe I was weak when I should’ve been strong.

Cry, baby, cry,
Tell me ’bout your lonesome lullaby.
Cry, baby, cry,
Tell me ’bout your lonesome lullaby.

You took me by surprise and like a shot in the dark, shot in the dark.
You showed yourself in your [bad word] light, [bad word] light.
You saved yourself by saving nobody else.
You must have cringed when you heard them tell.

Cry, baby, cry,
Tell me ’bout your lonesome lullaby.
Cry, baby, cry,
Tell me ’bout your lonesome lullaby.

You took the wrong turn at the city of dreams, city of dreams.
You ended up back, where you came from it seems, came from it seems.
Back there to where there’s nothing else to do.
Back there where you can sit and think of only you.

Cry, baby, cry,
Tell me ’bout your lonesome lullaby.
Cry, baby, cry,
Tell me ’bout your lonesome lullaby.

Cry,
Tell me ’bout your lonesome lullaby.
Cry,
Tell me ’bout your lonesome lullaby.

Your lonesome lullaby.
