A lullaby about school shootings
Lyrics
Hush now, little one, lay your small head down
La-la, la-la, let the night tuck you in
Soft hands around you, like a warm, quiet town
Shh, mmm, breathe slow, let the moon begin
Sometimes the schoolyard sings a loud, sudden song
Sirens paint the air where we used to play
When the world gets heavy and the night feels wrong
We hold on to each other, we won't drift away (no, no)
Close your eyes, I'll name the safe things: coat, flashlight, door
Close your eyes, I'll trace the path we take to morning light (hush now)
Sleep, sleep, little one, sleep (sleep, sleep)
We keep watch while the dark learns to be kind
Sleep, sleep, little one, sleep (shh, shh)
We're steady hands and a circle you can find
Sleep, sleep, little one, sleep (la-la)
We're here, we're here, we're here, we're here
There are stories told in quiet, of courage and of care
Of teachers who stood firm, of neighbors who came close
Of tiny brave lights, of people who would dare
To gather up the frightened and carry them like toast (mmm)
Close your eyes, I'll sing the roads that bring us back to dawn
Close your eyes, the names we hold like lanterns on and on (hold on)
Sleep, sleep, little one, sleep (sleep, sleep)
We keep watch while the dark learns to be kind
Sleep, sleep, little one, sleep (shh, shh)
We're steady hands and a circle you can find
Sleep, sleep, little one, sleep (la-la)
We're here, we're here, we're here, we're here
If the night remembers names that ache, we'll name them soft and slow
We'll hang them like small stars in a sky that's learning how to glow
We will teach our mouths to promise: you are safe, you are known
We will mend the torn places with every hand we've shown (mmm)
Sleep, sleep, little one, sleep (sleep, sleep)
We keep watch while the dark learns to be kind
Sleep, sleep, little one, sleep (shh, shh)
We're steady hands and a circle you can find
Sleep, sleep, little one, sleep (la-la)
We're here, we're here, we're here, we're here
