    "comment": "\"Lullaby\" is based on a recurring nightmare Robert Smith had as a child where he was eaten by a giant spider; Smith says the song is about the fear of sleep. According to Robert Smith, his father would sing him lullabies as a child with eerie endings; \"There would be something like 'Sleep now, pretty baby,' and then there'd be an 'Or you won't wake up at all' coda to the song,\" he said.\nhttps://www.songfacts.com/facts/the-cure/lullaby",
