This One Last Time

Down, down, kick me to the dirt
Put me in a place where I can't feel the hurt.
Down, down, even further I'll be,
Arms 'cross my shoulders, float me out to sea

Sweet were the lullabies, sweet was the sleep
Those times I wasn't haunted, under way too deep.
I dremt of green grass, white clouds, and blue skies,
But it's all different now, see it in my eyes.

Now you lay me down, this one last time
The rope around my neck, this time unbind'
Laid in my silk lined eternal bed
Still your guilt's been left unsaid.

Ceremonial wishes, a few last cold kisses
Are set upon my face -
Dressed as a doll, a baby in lace,
Just a puppet now.
