My Lullaby

I'm falling down a deep abyss,
with no way out but you.
So sing a lullaby for me
so I don't break in two.

The lilting tune you play,
you know,
will slowly break my heart.

And the melody the others play,
is tearing us apart.

Say the word
loud enough
so that your voice is heard
above the grasping hands of those
who wish that our hearts
would fade to dust.

Say you need me
and I'll be there,
to hold you forever,
in my arms.

So I won't be falling
Into a dark abyss
my only way out being you.
