Let the evening in now
Let the darkness come
Shadows in your room unfold the night


Time to go to sleep now
For every man and child

Remember you're protected by the blackness

One was nearly seven

Her sister almost five
You'll tell us all tomorrow, Mary Bell


About how smoothly things went
And how they didn't fight
You're going back there, Mary Bell


And tell us how you found out
What no child should know

Tell us about the killing, Mary Bell

The night is dark above you

The universe is quiet
Tonight you're still protected by the blackness
