It seems as though the past is here to stay,
 And the future is a million miles away.
Awake you fear the demons in your bed.
 Asleep they swim into your heavy head.
I see them move inside your every twitch.
 Your soul’s in need of one more closing stitch.
I think it’s wonderful I’ve caught your eye.
 You are an angel living in my sky.lo
I wonder if you hear me when I say,
 “Inside your arms is where I’d like to stay.”
Forget all of your useless could-have-beens,
 Before the curse of holding on begins.
So open up your eyes and see me here.
 I promise not to draw a single tear.
Your love is something I can strongly taste,
 In between my locked and loathing space.
There’s times  I scream without making a sound,
 And times I can’t find up when I am down.
I know there is a place that still remains,
 A place that eats the fear and kills the pain.
And in this place with you I disappear.
 It’s a place that’s so much brighter when you’re near.
So kneel with me inside this place and pray,
 Pray we have a love that’s here to stay.
Now sleep and know I’ll keep your soul from harm,
 And know you’re always safe inside my arms.
