Light in the Dark
Dont show me a light in the darkness
only to tear it away
leave me isolated and blind in emptiness
fumbling for a grasp at a reality
where you no longer exist
vulnerable to each word you say
my heart is now an open wound
it took some time but i let my walls cave
I swooned and i fell and i lost the way
dont leave me to die
I need you to stay
Because i fall too soon
and i love so hard
hopelessly falling into your gravity
a shooting star and i came so far
flying from a dismal reality
I saw the light of your sun
the love of your world
I fled from the darkness
and into your arms
and i have never fallen like this
your kiss and the touch of your lips
you run your fingers through my hair
and tenderly hold my face and chin
so softly you speak
and when you look in my eyes
I can't help but to smile
and no matter the time
you make me want to stay awhile..
and i fear you will push me away
I fear you will shut the door in my face
brandish a blade and leave it in my chest
for the most successful of killers
are the ones who show love best
so as i lay here and think of you
I ask for only one thing..
to not show me a light in the darkness
just to tear it away
only to tear it away
leave me isolated and blind in emptiness
fumbling for a grasp at a reality
where you no longer exist
vulnerable to each word you say
my heart is now an open wound
it took some time but i let my walls cave
I swooned and i fell and i lost the way
dont leave me to die
I need you to stay
Because i fall too soon
and i love so hard
hopelessly falling into your gravity
a shooting star and i came so far
flying from a dismal reality
I saw the light of your sun
the love of your world
I fled from the darkness
and into your arms
and i have never fallen like this
your kiss and the touch of your lips
you run your fingers through my hair
and tenderly hold my face and chin
so softly you speak
and when you look in my eyes
I can't help but to smile
and no matter the time
you make me want to stay awhile..
and i fear you will push me away
I fear you will shut the door in my face
brandish a blade and leave it in my chest
for the most successful of killers
are the ones who show love best
so as i lay here and think of you
I ask for only one thing..
to not show me a light in the darkness
just to tear it away
