[Intro]
Lights out
Teeth grit
Cold floor
Heart split (yeah)
[Verse 1]
Hear chains
Clank slow in the hallway
Red stain
Drip thick in the doorway
Mom pray
Hands shake on the duvet
I stay
Sharp grin in the moon’s ray
Bare feet on tile
Glass in the grin, I smile
Shadow in the corner, child
“Come close” in a voice too mild
[Chorus]
Whoop that trick
’til the nightmare quits
Yeet that fear
Through the ceiling, kid
Rock you, rock you
Deep in the pit
Lullaby sick
While we whoop that trick
[Verse 2]
She hums
Soft tune by the nightstand
He comes
Black boots in the quicksand
Clock stuck
On a number it can’t stand
Eyes wide
See the mark on his right hand
Sweet voice with a switchblade tongue
Kiss warm but the blood runs young
Two thrones in a crib spun round
Two crowns in a burial ground (woah)
[Chorus]
Whoop that trick
’til the nightmare quits
Yeet that fear
Through the ceiling, kid
Rock you, rock you
Deep in the pit
Lullaby sick
While we whoop that trick
[Bridge]
[Beat drops to distant rumble, whispered duet]
Hush now
Don’t you cry
Count those
Cracks in the sky
One for the hurt
Two for the spit
Three for the ash
Four—(we don’t quit)
[Chorus]
Whoop that trick
’til the nightmare quits
Yeet that fear
Through the ceiling, kid
Rock you, rock you
Deep in the pit
Lullaby sick
While we whoop that trick
[Outro]
[Synths melt into a warped music box]
Sleep tight
If you can
Dark sings
Like a fan
Last breath
On the candle wick
Drift off
While we whoop that trick
