Give Me Shelter

I cant sleep and i'm so tired,

so tired of the way I feel.

Been walking wires over fires,

And my thoughts are hard to kill.

I'm so close to being hollow,

and my pin is running low.

All this shit is hard to swallow,

I feel like any minute I'll explode.



I need you to shelter my soul,

Embrace me in your wings.

Take me before I lose control,

Take me away from everything.



I'm so lost but you find me,

And hold me close till all is right.

I feel the world falling behind me,

As you shoot me to the sky.

I believe you take away pain,

From these wounds that never healed,

But so much inside me remains,

Baby, cant you cure my ill?!



I need you to shelter my soul,

embrace me with your wings.

Take me, I dont need no control,

Take me away into a dream.



I need you to take me away,

hide me from this wicked world.

Hold me tight inside your embrace,

And I know you'll save me, Girl.

Cause I'm lost but with you i'm found,

And it's beautiful to live.

Your Love is deep and abound,

And its the remedy you give.



So once more just shelter my soul,

And embrace me in your wings.

Hold me within your control,

For that deed I'll do anything.
