Lullaby - The Spill Canvas

If someone sang me this song and meant it, I'd know that I wasn't going to get hurt. I'd be so sure of it, that I'd follow them to the end of the earth and back. I'd believe it so much that I'd be able to feel it, tangibly, whenever I touched them or saw them. The person Nick Thomas meant this song for must feel amazing and loved and perfect every single time they hear it. I wish I could feel that way too. So much.

And maybe someday I will.



its the way that you blush when you're nervous.
it's your ability to make me earn this.
i know that you're tired, just let me sing you to sleep.
it's about how you laugh out of pity. because lets be honest, i'm not really that funny.
i know that you're shot, just let me sing you to sleep.


if you need anything,
just say the word, i mean anything.
rest assured, if you start to doze,
then i'll tuck you in. plant my lips where your necklaces close.


its those pills that you don't need to take.
medicating perfection? now thats a mistake.
i know that you're spent, now let me sing you to sleep.
it's your finger, and how i'm wrapped around it.
it's your grace, and how it keeps me grounded.
I know that you're weak, just let me sing you to sleep.


if you need anything,
just say the word, i mean anything.
rest assured, if you start to doze,
then i'll tuck you in, plant my lips where your necklaces close.


while you were sleeping
i figured out everything,
i was constructed for you,
and you were molded for me.
now i feel your name,
coursing through my veins,

you shine so bright it's insane you put the sun to shame.


if you need anything,
just say the word, i mean anything.
(i really do)
rest assured, if you start to doze,
then i'll tuck you in, plant my lips where your necklaces close.
