Hush little darling.
Don’t let them drag you down
This world keeps on spinning
and I hear a crying sound

Sleep safe in surrender 
I will watch over your bed
I’ll be your defender
and will always keep you fed.

I might not be here
but even death can’t keep me apart.
Know child that I love you
and will surround you in that dark.

I’ll watch for monsters
That  hide underneath you bed
Chase them from the corners
and out of your head.

This thing I’ll carry
Whether here or from beyond
This bond will never vary
You cannot do it harm.

Hush little darling.
I’ll watch over your bed.
I’ll stay with you forever
and I’ll keep your dreams well fed.
