Lullaby to Nightmares

Have you ever seen a bloody head?
Glass in hand, lying up in bed
That's the time to sing this cowardly lullaby
And you ought to know whyLullaby to nightmares, whispered low
In the night where batwings flow
That's where all the fright mares go
When the elephants die, wouldn't you like to try?Have you ever heard the blackbird's song?
Summer days, all summer long
Underneath a shady tree a shadow sitting next to me
And we stare at the sunLullaby to nightmares, whispered low
In the night where batwings flow
That's where all the fright mares go
When the elephants die, wouldn't you like to try?
