Sleep my child, free from heartache
Slumber Esther in my arms

I'll protect you from the threat of
Those who seek to take your life

All I can ask of you
Understand my deep obsession

For my sweet, darling daughter
You're my love from demon lust

They can't see you for what you are
That's my twisted angel

But I do recognize you
I'd slay all the world for you

You're my precious little gift
Given to me by the Goddess

Countless nights filled with my sorrow
Ceased because you're in my life

And I promise that I'll slaughter
Those who would take you away

This is so, this is true
Just because you've killed does not mean

I don't love you, darling daughter
Truth be told, I'd kill them too

In betwixt the plains of madness
I've spent times on torture's rack

If you were dropped in Hades
I'd leap in to steal you back

You and I shall live as one
Death can't stop us, we are family

There's no madhouse that can keep us
Locked within its padded walls

Sleep my child, free from heartache
Slumber Esther in my arms

Esther, darling, I love you
Thank you for the peace that you've brought me
