#and this is now my sons lullaby

“Bluebird, Bluebird, Darkling said, I’ve come to steal your crown. With all the fury by my side, I’ll tear your kingdom down, I’ll tear your kingdom down.

Darkling, Darkling, Bluebird said, My crown you’ll never steal, when love and persistence are the altar where I kneel, the altar where I kneel.

Bluebird, Bluebird, Darkling said, you don’t know a thing. Hopelessness is everywhere, and cynical is king, cynical is king.

Darkling, Darkling, Bluebird said, I reject your wretched fear. My battered wings may fail me, but I’ll always be here, I’ll always be here. 

Bluebird, Bluebird, Darkling said, my wicked ways are true. I’ll steal your gold and glory crown, and I’ll be the death of you, I’ll be the death of you.

Darkling, Darkling, Bluebird said, I’m not afraid of thee. I’ll fly beyond your shrouded cage to the jubilee, to the jubilee.”
