Hush little heart, don’t make a beat
The butcher’s lullaby is sweet

I kiss the scars I didn’t make
I count the ribs for heaven’s sake
Your halo slips, your sins awake
Tonight’s the night we celebrate

La-la-la one by one, they fall asleep
La-la-la into the dark, so cold, so deep
I’ll tuck you in with teeth that shine
You’re mine, you're mine, you're mine tonight!

I dressed your fear in Sunday lace
A silver fork, a porcelain face
Your prayers are pins inside my grin
Let’s peel the truth beneath your skin

La-la-la their mothers weep, but they still smile
La-la-la the cradle breaks with every mile
No God will knock, no light will shine
The lullaby is now divine

I only sing when angels scream
So scream for me!

You called for help? That’s cute as hell
But the choir’s full, can’t break the spell

La-la-la say your name before it’s gone
La-la-la I’ve been your shadow all along
The lullaby’s your final breath
A kiss from me, your song of death

Goodnight
