The Devil's Lullaby
IT HATH TURNED ME AWAY,
BELONG IN PAIN, FOR ALL OF
MY DAYS.
REPENT AND REAP THE OATS
SOWN.
HEAR THE BITTERNESS IN
MY TONE.
FORGET TO FORGIVE THAT
WHICH HATH BEEN DENIED...
AND LIVE! LIVE! SAY I
TO HOLDETH TIGHTLY UNTO
THE ENDS OF MINE LIFE.
AS THINE MIND PLAYS
TRICKS AND PUSHES ME
INTO A SWEET SLUMBER
WOOED BY THINE OWN
MEDIOCRITY;
THIS IS THE DEVIL'S LULLABY.
NOW BE AT PEACE AND REST SOON
YE SHALL STOP LIFE'S PROTEST.
