Sanctuary

My Sanctuary's burning
All my things are
Turning to ash
Smoke is rising, I quit trying
To piece together these shards of broken glass

How should I have known
Something so strong, would fall apart
With me inside
I will not lose hope
But I still hurt, these bones and dirt
Were my sanctuary

These picture frames, smoke and decay
How could I have known that it would be the last time
Hold hands and pray, thanks for this day
He smiles her way for the very last time

And my sanctuary starts to die

Tough, sturdy walls you promised me
Now you say that promises are for the weak
There's too much here I cannot leave
And if you make me go I'll kick and scream

Oh my sanctuary
Oh my sanctuary
My Sanctuary's burning
All my things are
turning to ash
Smoke is rising, I quit trying
To piece together these shards of broken glass
My Sanctuary's burning
All my things are
turning to ash
Smoke is rising, I quit trying
To piece together these shards of broken glass

When something so strong
Falls apart
Oh it hurts
These bones and dirt
