enter night! 1991 - knapp 5 Jahre nach Cliff… das schwarze Album ist draussen! Metallica spielt in Moskau!! und ich fang grad an, sie zu mögen!

say your prayers - little one,
don’t forget my son
to include everyone!
i tuck you in
warm within
keep you free from sin
’til the sandman he comes

sleep with one eye open!
gripping your pillow tight!!

exit light!
enter night!
take my hand
we’re off to never-never-land!!

something’s wrong - shut the light,
heavy thoughts tonight
and they aren’t of snow white!
dreams of war
dreams of liars
dreams of dragons fire
and of things that will bite!!

“now i lay me down to sleep
pray the lord my soul to keep
if i die before i wake
pray the lord my soul to take”

… hush little baby don’t say a word
and never mind that noise you heard
it’s just the beasts under your bed
in your closet and in your head!!

… grain of sand!
