Sleep of the Innocent Lyrics


I lost my family

To the black plague

I asked God why

Did we make a mistake

I should have gone with them

Through the heaven's gate

I want my time to come

I know I'll have to wait

I saved half the town

With my recipe

Nature's secrets

Are all well-known to me

I should have let them suffer

I should have let them die

Cause now they all claim

What a wicked witch am I

Belladonna

Make this nightmare go away

Sing me a lullaby, it's much too late to pray

Use your sedating power

Make me close my eyes

Kill my soul

Make me sleep before I...

Black clouds darken the sky

Still the Moon's so bright

I'm gonna die

On this dark and scary night

The priest leads them to me

And I wait patiently

Knowing what will happen

I'll see my family

I smell my flesh burning

Turning scorched and black

But I cannot feel

The flames that lick my back

Thank you belladonna

For protecting me

For now I'll die in grace

And not in agony
