Aidan Moffat Lullaby For Unborn Child lyrics

If you're scared of coming out
and you fear what lies ahead;
overheard and understood
the scary words your parents said;
if you've heard us talk of suffering,
if you feel the monsters loom;
if you think that life won't suit you,
just knock on the wall of your womb.

You see, I know just how you feel -
my mind has rarely known much rest,
and I can't promise you'll be happy
but I can promise you my best.
Sometimes I wish I was there with you
but as you know, there's not much room,

so in the meantime, if you need me,
just knock on the wall of your womb.

But there are questions I can't answer,
there is so much I don't know,
but we can learn it all together
so just lie back and grow.

And soon we'll share that heart above you
that beats boom, ba-boom, ba-boom,
and in the meantime, if you need me
just knock on the wall of your womb.
