“Cradle”
By Trevor de Sade
I lie in my mother’s cradle
Scream anthems of rust & decay
Slit my throat it helps me sleep
A million poppies to pass the time
The bitter shade of blood white roses
Face down on our funeral bed
Lie awake in this cradle you left for me
While you sleep in your garden of angels
These are the scars we share
Someday I’ll fly on your bitter wings
My failure salvation is in the dust
Butterflies in me that will never fly
Fake rebirth, that is still unborn
Faces that will never come to me
Lie awake in this cradle you left for me
Slit my throat it helps me sleep
Lie awake in this cradle you left for me
Slit my throat it helps me sleep
Lie awake in this cradle you left for me
Slit my throat it helps me sleep
Lie awake in this cradle you left for me
Slit my throat it helps me sleep
Slit my throat it helps me sleep
Slit my throat it helps me sleep
Slit my throat it helps me sleep
Slit my throat it helps me sleep
Someday I’ll fly on your bitter wings
