Until It Slumbers

Once there was a way to take this pain of mine
I tried to run but it stays right by my side
Tear me open and do not cry
I will scream a lullaby

Golden slumbers steal my eyes
Pain await you when I rise
Tear me open and do not cry
I will scream a lullaby

Once there was a curse, just like the stray
You fed it once and now it stays
Tear me open and do not cry
I will scream a lullaby
