Lullaby for a King

Description

I listened to a song called lullaby for a princess and I fell in love with it and I wanted to make a picture based not only on the song but on my story as well. This was two nights before nightmare doom was freed from his imprisonment from the moon. Every night when Sonic would come out to bring the sun up for a new day, he would wing him a lullaby that he made himself about their past fifty years ago when sonic had to use the chaos emeralds to banish nightmare doom and shadow to the moon.
Here is the lullaby that he sings every night.

Intro:
Fate has been cruel and order unkind
How can I have sent you away?
The blame was my own; the punishment, yours
The harmony's silent today
But into the stillness I'll bring you a song
And I will your company keep
Till your tired eyes and my lullabies
Have carried you softly to sleep

Verse 1:
Once was a prince who shone like the sun
Look out on his kingdom and sigh
He smiled and said, "surley there is nobody
So loving and so well loved as I"
So great was his reign and so brilliant his glory
That long was the shadow he cast
Which fell dark on the elder brother he loved
And grew only darker as days and nights passed

Chorus:
Shadow moon king, goodnight brother mine
And rest no in moonlights embrace
Bear up my lullaby, winds of the earth
Through cloud, and through sky, and through space
Carry the peace and the coolness of night
And carry my sorrow in kind
Shadow, you're loved much more than you know
Forgive me for being two blind

Verse 2:
Soon did the prince notice that others
Did not give his brother his due
And neither had he loved him as he deserved
He watched as his brother's unhappiness grew
But such is the way of the limelight, it sweetly
Takes hold of the mind of its host
And the foolish prince did nothing to stop
The destruction of one who had needed him most

Chorus:
Shadow moon king, goodnight brother mine
And rest now in moonlights embrace
Bear up my lullaby, winds of the earth
Through cloud, and through sky, and through space
Carry the peace and the coolness of night
And carry my sorrow in kind
Shadow, you're loved so much more than you know
May troubles be far from your mind
And forgive me for being so blind

Bridge:
The years now before us
Fearful and unknown
I never imagined
I'd face them on my own
May the fifty winters
Swiftly pass, I pray
I love you; I miss you
All these miles away

Ending:
May all your dreams be sweet tonight
Safe upon your bed of moonlight
And know not of sadness, pain, or care
And when I dream, I'll fly away and meet you there
Sleep...
