Nothing so bright

Nothing so small

Nothing so pure as my baby



All of my life

Days into nights

All i did dream was my baby

Until the day

Darkness entwined with silver eyes

Was my baby staring at me



And since then

I can't see straight

And since then

My smile's been fake

Funny, i know the troubles i've seen

But through one eye only that's clean



If you bring along your needles

Then i'll bring my sharpened pencils

And draw one more comic tragedy

So call up the child players

From madame we'll rent the parlor

And dance to death till i can't see

My baby
