Bedtime for the Children - Karin Park

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
