The Samans black lullaby

Close your eyes
At the advent of night
Go find your dreamland
Just walk into the light
Dream of cakes and candies
Dream of swings and slides
Dream of mama's kiss
She's waiting on the other side
Take my hands
I'll give you shelter from
The crimes humans commit
And seeds of hate they plant
Why there's cannons roaring
Why there's bombs and tanks
Why people kill each other
Neither do I understand
Tread lightly
She is near
Under the snow
Speak gently
She can hear
The daisies grow
Tarnished with rust
She that was young and fair
Fallen to dust
