Check out this sweet little lullaby from Taylor Swift and The Civil Wars straight off the Hunger Games soundtrack. While we like the twang, the more tween pop they push into this movie, the more nervous we get. But who knows — this could be the after-credits tune, for all we know.
Take a listen, and get a feel for the mood of the Hunger Games (a movie about children killing each other for the amusement of the people).
LYRICS:
I remember tears streaming down your face
When I said, I’ll never let you go
When all those shadows almost killed your light
I remember you said, Don’t leave me here alone
But all that’s dead and gone and passed tonight
Just close your eyes
The sun is going down
You’ll be alright
No one can hurt you now
Come morning light
You and I’ll be safe and sound
Don’t you dare look out your window
Darling, everything’s on fire
The war outside our door keeps raging on
Hold onto this lullaby
Even when the music’s gone, gone
Just close your eyes
The sun is going down
You’ll be alright
No one can hurt you now
Come morning light
You and I’ll be safe and sound
Just close your eyes
You’ll be alright
Come morning light,
You and I’ll be safe and sound
