As Long As You Lay

Take in all the moments
When time sits still
That's when
The mind will heal...

In the moments we teach
Are the moments we learn
That acceptance is kind
And that kindness returns
Stuck in a cycle
Led to believe
That to just be yourself
Is what makes us diseased

You are beautiful
Know nothing at all
You're right where
We want you

The same as it's ever been
The same it'll always be
As long as you lay with me
The way it's supposed to be

The years pass as fast
As when night turns into day
The brightest of lights
Are now fading away
All that I ask
Is to just hear your name
Before they come
And they take it too

They pick at your skin
Your skin keeps on picking
Your minds unaware
That your body's forgiving
(That your heart has stopped living)
All that they want
Is to just keep on picking
They pick at your skin
Until your skin crawls
Under... their clothes

They rip out your heart
They feed off your soul
Enough is not enough
When it is they just want more
Just accept who you are
Move on to the side
At the end of it all
We're all victims of time
