Little One from Homesick by Jason David Tanner

The stars never come out here
Folded into space
Your eyes so cold and clear
I see you through broken glass
The ghosts will never leave
The days all bleed into one
You can’t turn down the noise
You have to bite your tongue

My little one
No need to fear
The monster is gone
There’s no one hear
Go back to bed
I’ll sing you to sleep
Please close your eyes
A promise to keep

Written all over your walls
The message left unsaid
Take it as it comes
This is our daily bread
I’m left holding the bag
I’m left standing here
Pieces to rearrange
You are nowhere near

My little one
No need to fear
The monster is gone
There’s no one hear
Go back to bed
I’ll sing you to sleep
Please close your eyes
A promise to keep

Waiting for the day to break
But morning never comes
The cold gets in your bones
A little darkness in everyone
But I am just like you
Looking for my way out
Timing is everything
Quiet as a mouse

My little one
No need to fear
The monster is gone
There’s no one hear
Go back to bed
I’ll sing you to sleep
Please close your eyes
A promise to keep
