Sleep darling sleep, is soft and silent sweet
You lie, where you lie, behind two hazel eyes
Before fabric was torn, the knob on the door
Was stained red with fingers
One night, buried inside, slips through your dreams only to linger
The news that spread today, one man had slipped away
When morning brought the light one cell was still and quiet
So hide darling hide, from noise you hear outside
But stand, where you stand, a hatchet in your hand
You lie, where you lie, behind two hazel eyes
Before fabric was torn, the knob on the door
Was stained red with fingers
One night, buried inside, slips through your dreams only to linger
The news that spread today, one man had slipped away
When morning brought the light one cell was still and quiet
So hide darling hide, from noise you hear outside
But stand, where you stand, a hatchet in your hand
