I am a little doll,
blonde hair, blue eyes,
with a hidden secret
and a million lies.
I steal away the children
in the middle of the night
and take them to my world
filled with pain, tears and spite.
It is my playground,
where the children must play,
and the games I devise
are of the most devilish array.
Of tortures and horrors,
and nights in the gloom,
and I fill them with terror
until I am finally through.
Then I throw them away,
into the dark's disarray,
where, forever, they'll stay,
living each day in replay.
More children come,
but no children go,
for you can't escape
your own sorrow.
The children brought me to life
through their pain, tears and rues,
and then I took them here
to make their nightmares come true.
So now they are trapped,
until they overcome their fears,
but how can they overcome
what is still unclear.
So until then I'm safe,
stealing the lives of the young,
and locking them inside
with the other voices unsung.
Afterall, a beautiful little doll
is nothing more than a plaything,
so how could it possibly be the cause
for so much terrible suffering.
