When everything piles on top of you
and you feel like you can’t get through
the dark reality we inhabit
Feels like the happiness you can’t have it.
When you feel like you want to get away
and you can’t get through the day.
When you want to shout and scream at the world
and you’re of just being ‘that girl’
When you want to break free, let loose, and fly
sink not swim and cry
You can escape, you can runaway,
into my arms.
I will shelter you.
I will keep you safe.
I will care for you
and I will take away the pain.
We can escape.
When you want to be alone
When you feel like you can’t pick up the phone
To talk to a friend about your day
to talk all your troubles away
When you only want to feel ‘pain’.
I will keep you from harm…
You can escape into my open arms. And I will
I will shelter you.
I will keep you safe.
I will care for you
and I will take away the pain.
We can escape.
I want the stream on main street
to sweep you off your aching soles
to cradle you and keep you from harm
deliver you into my open arms.
I’ll keep you from harm.
I’ll keep you from harm.
I want the rain to stop and the storm to pass
I want the howling wind to let us be,
so we can hold one another
feel safe and be together.
I’ll keep you from harm.
I’ll keep you from harm.
My hand’s on her shoulder
her skin feels colder on
her back and than yours
That’s just how it was
Unintentionally
Committing adultery
With a friend of a friend
Is this how it ends?
A shot of vodka
a twist of lime
Take me down a peg
Take the lie.
In a fifth of whiskey
I take solace
All I’m asking for
Is one last kiss
Then comes my fit again, amidst the pain
What I did hurt you, now I’m hurting me
I can’t do this. I can’t bare to see you cry.
I can’t do this, I’m listing the reasons why
I love you.
And I miss you.
A shot of vodka
a twist of lime
Take me down a peg
Take a line.
In a fifth of whiskey
I take solace
All I’m asking for
Is one last kiss
