Lullaby Lyrics - Assemblage 23

May you find solace in the gentle arms of sleep 

Despite the wolves outside your door 

In time you will see them all as harmless 

And their idle threats easy to ignore 

And if ever fate should choose to smite you 

Stand your ground, never walk away 

Please don't ever let the world defeat you 

Don't get buried in its decay 

As you drift into the gauzy realm of dreams 

May you take comfort in the thought that you are safe 

For it only takes a fraction of a second 

For all of this to change 

CH 

Return to me 

When slumber's fog has lifted 

Return to me 

Stronger than before 

As you sink beneath the soothing streams of time 

May you be thankful that you had another day 

For there comes a time when each of us will enter 

A sleep from which we will never wake 

And if ever fate should choose to smite you 

Stand your ground, never walk away 

Please don't ever let the world defeat you 

Don't get buried in its decay 

Close your eyes now, if only for a moment 

For it's time you get some rest 

The wolves are gone and nothing here can harm you 

Let go of your fragile consciousness 

(CH)
