Lullaby
This is a nursery rhyme for the doomed. Instead of comfort, the mother sings that 'Baby's going to die' and warns of monsters in the closet. I wanted to subvert the safety of a lullaby to create a terrifying contrast, whispering horrific truths about mortality and darkness to a child in the 'dead of night'.

THE VERSES
In the dead of night
You'll hear a cry
Baby's gonna die
Oh-oh-oh-oh
In the midnight hour
A bell will chime
Baby's out of time
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Hush now
Don't you cry
'Cause Mommy's gonna sing you a lullaby
With a melody that will blow your mind
Saying baby's gonna die
Underneath your bed
With glowing eyes
The monster hides
Oh-oh-oh-oh
In your closet's where
The darkness lies
Baby
Close your eyes
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Hush now
Don't you cry
'Cause Mommy's gonna sing you a lullaby
With a melody that will blow your mind
Saying baby's gonna die
