Nightmare Lullaby

All of this will pass
 I swear that it is true
 And someday it will all begin anew
 Oh my darling girl
 Don't you ruin your health
 By living for the emptiness of wealth
 Lay your soul to rest
 And I will sing for you
 A nightmare lullaby
 A nightmare lullaby
 I know it can be hard
 When you live alone
 And your body is a single aching bone
 Now it's getting cold
 Summer ends so fast
 And winter comes for everyone
 at last
 Lay your soul to rest
 And I will sing for you
 A nightmare lullaby
 A nightmare lullaby
 Be content with death
 And disappointment too
 For misery is life's golden rule
 All these wicked dreams
 I made them just for you
 I tell you this to justify your blues
 Lay your soul to rest
 And I will sing for you
 A nightmare lullaby
 A nightmare lullaby
