Out of Fear (Extended Version)

You are the flame that I never had
To light up the darkest of nights
Sometimes I hear her crying
When you're next to me
She never could be tough enough
With both feet on the ground
Where dreamers get lost, no ghosts are found
So they say
A funny little depiction they have made
I'm in ruins again

Another day has found it's way to guide her to the start
Though cold, afraid, she follows me
And tells me who you are
And I never could believe that you would stay for who I am
Naked and obscure
And home again

Tell me if somebody's after you
A colleague or someone from school
Tell me if somebody's coming through
When I hold your hand

I don't know how I laid eyes on you
Way before you took my hand
So easy to say but hard to grasp
Like I am
A summer breeze blowing swiftly through your land
Then I'm distant again

Another day has gone astray and left me where you are
Though cold, afraid, she follows me
And finds us where we are
And I never could believe that you would take me as I am
Torn apart, a lover or a friend

Someday the dark expires
Someday I've lit a fire
Someday I'll take her out of here
Someday the dark expires
Someday I'll light a fire
Someday I'll take you out of here
Out of fear
