A Perfect Circle - Step

Dont fret precious Im here, step away from the window
Go back to sleep

Lay your head down child
I wont let the boogeyman come

Counting bodies like sheep
To the rhythm of the war drums

Pay no mind to the rabble
Pay no mind to the rabble

Head down, go to sleep
To the rhythm of the war drums

Pay no mind what other voices say
They dont care about you, like I do, like I do
Safe from pain and truth and choice and other poison devils,
See, they dont give a fuck about you, like I do.

Just stay with me, safe and ignorant,
Go back to sleep
Go back to sleep

Lay your head down child
I wont let the boogeyman come
Count the bodies like sheep
To the rhythm of the war drums

Pay no mind to the rabble
Pay no mind to the rabble

Head down, go to sleep to the rhythm of the war drums

Ill be the one to protect you from
Your enemies and all your demons

Ill be the one to protect you from
A will to survive and a voice of reason

Ill be the one to protect you from
Your enemies and your choices son
Theyre one in the same
I must isolate you
Isolate and save you from yourself

Swayin to the rhythm of the new world order and
Count the bodies like sheep to the rhythm of the war drum

The boogeymen are coming
The boogeymen are coming

Keep your head down, go to sleep, to the rhythm of a war drum

Stay with me
Safe and ignorant
Just stay with me
Hold you and protect you from the other one
The evil ones
Dont love you son,
Go back to sleep
