Wake up beautiful child


Wake up beautiful child 

For the sun is setting

And it's time to howl at the moon

As the stars whisper lies behind your back

Wake up troubled girl

And take a walk through hell

As you dance around Saturn's rings

And cleanse your name of sin

Because Earth will still spin without you

Wake up young love

As you dream horrifying nightmares

Because the universe is not as big as you once thought

You have already visited it all

So just go back to bed 

There's no reason 

For your soul to take this any longer
