Cradle - The Living Sisters

We were better on the first time Love was simple as a mother and a baby child Then you rocked our cradle and we fell out of love Oh-oh, laying wide awake Tell me how could I forget all the words to a lullaby? We've fallen, fallen out of love Oh, no, I try everything to reach you Send you out but you would only read through A picture book with no words A bedtime story I'm pretending Left me with a happy ending The sheep I count come in herds When I'm gone, I creep, but you gossip in your sleep So I'll know all the secrets you keep under the sheets Now, we were better on the first time Love was simple as a mother and a baby child Then you rocked our cradle and we fell out of love Oh-oh, laying wide awake Tell me how could I forget all the words to a lullaby? We've fallen, fallen out of love So please don't let me fall asleep These childish dreams only make me weaker So please do something, wake me, make a sound I'm scared, I won't wake up before I hit the ground We were better on the first time Love was simple as a mother and a baby child Then you rocked our cradle and we fell out of love Oh-oh, laying wide awake Tell me how could I forget all the words to a lullaby? We've fallen, fallen out of love We've fallen, fallen out of love

Breathe Breathe Breathe Breathe Push Push Push Push I lost you You were my God Thought what do I do now You were never there for me Never there to carry me 26 years looking back that time is gone It was you I believed in Look what you've done to me Realize what you've done to Me Oh, God please Oh, God please I wanna breathe Before my life just walks away from me I can't see going on In this darkness I'm blind Beneath my cradle, the bough has broke I exorcise my loss Your lies Punishment It takes time To try to mend the wounds of all the suffering What do I do now? And, all I'm asking from you please Send me a sign To guide me through the times that lie in front of me I'll get by Myself Look at me now, a piece of shit like you Look at me now, you left me, so fuck you Look at me now, a piece of shit like you Look at me now, you left me, so fuck you 'Cause everybody leaves me Everybody's gone Watch my father leave me There's nobody left Feels like I've never been loved Everybody leaves me Never gave a shit about me Everybody's gone I'll rot in my head alone I don't give a fuck about you, go the fuck away I don't give a fuck about you, go the fuck away I don't give a fuck about you, go the fuck away I don't give a fuck about you, go the fuck away (I'll rot in my head all alone) Fucking cocksucker Me Fake being Inside of my heart you are the liar Innocence displaced Institutionalised in my own life Been left Here I stand now and I'm alone With no one to comfort me One set of footprints in the sand No one to take my hand, I'll I'll walk through as long as I need I'll drift through my life though I'm alone Outgrown the cradle that once housed me And I've found that all I need is Me Me Me Me Found I've never needed you To push through All the shit that stacks up Inside of my life Endless plight that circulates through my body I'll keep stumbling Beating Pummeling Teething on the rind and Renounce my being I can't see going on I can't see going on I can't see going on I can't see going on I can't see I'm to tired I can't see Well, I can't see going on I'm so tired Of trying to mend the wounds of all my suffering What do I do now And, all I'm asking from you please Send me a sign To guide me through the times that lie in front of me I'll get by Myself I can't see going on, fuck it I can't see going on, fuck it I can't see going on, fuck it I can't see going on, fuck it

Shoo bop shoo wop Shoo bop shoo wop Shoo bop shoo wop Shoo bop shoo wop I always think if only When I'm feelin' lonely We could give another try I'm sick and tired of cryin' And all my empty nights Seem emptier tonight Without you (without you) I thought I saw you walkin' Thought I heard you talkin' You were telling someone else Of all the love you felt And though it wasn't you It made me just as blue What can I do You make me blue You make me blue You make me blue You make me so blue Shoo bop shoo wop I know we had to break up How many times can we make up Til it starts to feel the same It turns into a game I'm happy that I'm sad The worst case I've ever had Of the blues You make me blue You make me blue You make me blue You make me so blue You make me blue You make me blue You make me blue You make me so blue

You said you couldn't stay too long But then you stayed much longer You said you never sang this song But then you sang it stronger And when I took your hand in mine I said it wasn't for all time But now, like miracles, I find the light continues to shine Ah, eight days and eight nights, hanukkah, hanukkah Light the candles burning bright, hanukkah, hanukkah No one believed the flame would last But now we celebrate the past, hanukkah, hanukkah, hanukkah Eight nights opening gifts, hanukkah, hanukkah Better than Christmas, don't you wish? Oh, hanukkah, hanukkah Judah Maccabee was for us, so eat potato pancakes with apple sauce Hanukkah, hanukkah, hanukkah Ooh, I really love you I didn't think it would go, but now I know I believe in miracles Eight nights, festival of lights, hanukkah, hanukkah Eight nights, happy and bright, oh, hanukkah, hanukkah No one believed that we could win But now we celebrate what's been Hanukkah, hanukkah, oh, hanukkah Hanukkah, hanukkah, hanukkah, hanukkah
