Dead Man's Lullaby
By: Jacob Sharkey
Let me sing to you,
a sweet lullaby.
For those who are dead,
and who have died.
Let me sing to you,
a sorrowful tune.
I promise you,
you will hear soon.
Let me sing to you,
a sad song.
For those who died hurt,
or who died alone.
For when you die,
I promise you'll hear,
the dead man's lullaby,
and will shed a tear.
Sleep now dead,
rest in peace.
For you lie now,
your body at ease.
Sleep now friend,
your life at an end.
You'll never die,
but it's time for goodbye.
I'll see you soon,
but until that day,
I will sing to you
a sweet and sorrowful tune.
For this is,
Dead Man's Lullaby
