Lyrics Bedtime for the Children - Karin Park

Bedtime for the Children

I served 11 years, there’s ten more yet to go
And now I know I have to get away
I’m writing down the map, the details, everything
They’re giving me a price I cannot pay
The cash is mine, it’s wailing
So soon I just have to get outside the walls
What it feels like, you ask me
I’ve been asleep so long, ooh ooh ooh
Bedtime for all the children
Gonna do it tonight
When we shut off all the lights
Bedtime for all the children
There’ll be no more prison in my life, no
We have to get away now, we have to get away now
We have to get away now, we have to get away now
I’m going through the plans, my body like a brick
I feel such a surprising clarity
I’ve waited night and day, I’m wearing out the floor
This is my only opportunity
I pushed the limit, I cannot
I have to get my body outside the walls
The pressure I feel, I want it
I need to feel the sun, ooh ooh ooh
Bedtime for all the children
Gonna do it tonight
When we shut off all the lights
Bedtime for all the children
There’ll be no more prison in my life, no
And I walk out the door
I am gone forever in a monster’s lullaby
I can’t take anymore
Someone is controlling every moment day and night
And I walk out the door
I am gone forever in a monster’s lullaby
I can’t take anymore
Someone is controlling every moment day and night
We have to get away now, we have to get away now
We have to get away now, we have to get away now
