my own half-feral minion-

be still, child, be still.

my totally wild paradise,

full moon sky dive-

be still, child, be still.

flowers coming on fast.

coming in thick currents-

speaking swiftly.

be still, child, be still.

slow down, be at peace.

don't sell, don't ask,

be still, child, be still.

let the monsters sleep.

don't sell, don't ask,

be still, child, be still.

ultra-transcendent

ulterior motives.

i said let the monster sleep.

be still, child, be still.

softly from a megaphone.

and louder.

be still no longer, child,

be still no more.

the monster sleeps no longer, child.

save yourself.
