Not really sure where this came from. Not sure if the idea is cute or just creepy as hell.
If you cant sleep at all tonight
And you sense that something’s wrong
And the wind that whispers through the trees
Seems to sing a mothers song
Then close your eyes ignore the sound
Of gurlgles, howls and cries
Upon the wind as it blows through
The late October skies
Stay ‘neath your blanket warm and snug
Don’t open windows wide
For the army of dead babies
Will be marching by outside
Reminders of the choices made
The lives we took for granted
They seek once more a mothers kiss
On this night that’s most enchanted
From those we lost in pointless wars
To others cruelly taken
Not loved, not wanted, never held
And many more forsaken
With Ghoulish faces sunken eyes
A mother’s heart they seek
To take her back to realms of dark
To care for souls most meek
Into your homes they crawl inside
Mouths gaping and dead eyes
Foot of your bed they sit and wait
Soft gurgles tender cries
And should you wake and heed their call
Heart tender, cries to stem
Your soul they take and leave you dead
And drag you back with them
And from that day ‘til ages pass
And they again return to light
You tend the dead lost babies souls
That wander through the night
