Prompt / Lyrics
Verse 1 Close your eyes, the night is long The wind is heavy, the stars are strong I lay my head where I used to fight And let the quiet carry me tonight Verse 2 A little pill, a little rest Keeps the storm from stealing my chest I don’t feel fire, I don’t feel bright Just steady, even through the night Chorus Lithium lullaby, hold me near Soft and steady, calm my fear I don’t have to burn to survive I am safe, I am alive Lithium lullaby, sing me true I’m stable, though I feel flat too The night is long, the sky is still But I can breathe, I can will Verse 3 Hands that shook now find their place Heart that raced slows its pace I whisper thanks for this quiet hand For a mind that can finally stand Pre-Chorus Not perfect, not bright, not bold Just steady in the hold Chorus Lithium lullaby, hold me near Soft and steady, calm my fear I don’t have to burn to survive I am safe, I am alive Lithium lullaby, sing me true I’m stable, though I feel flat too The night is long, the sky is still But I can breathe, I can will Bridge Every shadow, every tear Finds its place, I do not fear Rest is not surrender, rest is power I am held in this quiet hour Final Chorus Lithium lullaby, hold me near Soft and steady, calm my fear I don’t have to shine, I don’t have to fight I am here, I am alright Lithium lullaby, sing me true I’m stable, though I feel flat too I am held, I am free And I am simply me (soft hum, gentle guitar/piano fade out)
