Desolate Earth
I'd rather you break my heart than I break yours
Leave me be so I can rot in peace
You know where you'll find me if you ever change course
Forever too afraid to move on in release
Step carefully through the fabricated havoc in my mind
It's a minefield in here but I'm sure you'll be fine
Cause I've been building a coffin and I've left a trail
Of memories leading to the last nail
All I need is your hammer and your hands so soft
Don't let me go when I finally drop
Slowly interlock your fingers in mine
I swear to you we'll last a lifetime
Oh, please promise me we'll last a lifetime
Take my hand, let me love you to death
Look into my eyes as if they're the last thing you'll see
On this desolate earth you're all I have left
No matter how much it hurts, please don't set me free
A love like mine is hard to find
My calloused hands and twisted mind
Aren't worth a second of your time
Once you find yourself you'll leave me behind
I remember when you looked into my eyes
And I said without you I'd be a nervous wreck
I sincerely hope we never say our goodbyes
Cause I never want to wake up in someone else's bed
Oh won't you keep me safe in your bed?
Take my hand, don't let go
Oh won't you keep me safe in your bed?
Cause these nights are hard to get through
And I don't know where I'd be without you
Interlock your fingers in mine
I swear to you we'll last a lifetime
Take my hand, let me love you to death
Look into my eyes as if they're the last thing you'll see
On this desolate earth you're all I have left
No matter how much it hurts, please don't set me free
Leave me be so I can rot in peace
You know where you'll find me if you ever change course
Forever too afraid to move on in release
Step carefully through the fabricated havoc in my mind
It's a minefield in here but I'm sure you'll be fine
Cause I've been building a coffin and I've left a trail
Of memories leading to the last nail
All I need is your hammer and your hands so soft
Don't let me go when I finally drop
Slowly interlock your fingers in mine
I swear to you we'll last a lifetime
Oh, please promise me we'll last a lifetime
Take my hand, let me love you to death
Look into my eyes as if they're the last thing you'll see
On this desolate earth you're all I have left
No matter how much it hurts, please don't set me free
A love like mine is hard to find
My calloused hands and twisted mind
Aren't worth a second of your time
Once you find yourself you'll leave me behind
I remember when you looked into my eyes
And I said without you I'd be a nervous wreck
I sincerely hope we never say our goodbyes
Cause I never want to wake up in someone else's bed
Oh won't you keep me safe in your bed?
Take my hand, don't let go
Oh won't you keep me safe in your bed?
Cause these nights are hard to get through
And I don't know where I'd be without you
Interlock your fingers in mine
I swear to you we'll last a lifetime
Take my hand, let me love you to death
Look into my eyes as if they're the last thing you'll see
On this desolate earth you're all I have left
No matter how much it hurts, please don't set me free
