Stay and Hold Me Tonight

Would you mind staying and holding me tonight? My nightmares are coming true What once was soft and familiar Has become rough and cold And you told me I had a frigid heart The whirlwind inside killed the warmth Would you believe me if I told you I burned my own heart when I was alone? I was drowning in an ocean of Nothing mattered anymore Except the crystal on the pocket watch That ticked longer the more I wound
Can we light a fire and lay on pillows on the ground? The stories have become old, yet that's all that keep their grip Stale bread on the kitchen table Much like the look in our eyes Is this how a relationship dies? A fresh wound on an old scar I wonder if you care so much Your tears would fill my lungs
Will you hold me until I fall asleep tonight? I wonder to myself if this was ever love Like the trees love the soil Like the soil drinks the water I'm parched A desert on fire Liquid freedom is coming for me And I will just be smoke Did you know this was our fate? My words are an abandoned shack Your words come laced with thorns
Will you be here when I wake? Of course you will You wear cement shoes You never get far Take them off and run You find your excuses Will I be here when I wake? I hope it's me and not the zombie I hope that I am a caterpillar Reinvented With or without you It doesn't matter anymore
