lyrics

Lullaby:

"It wasn't like you,
To end the world,
Right?

It wasn't like you?
To hold my hand through the night

It wasn't like you?
To strip the secrets from my soul

It wasn't like you?
To keep me,
Whole

Hold,
On to me,
Girl

The world,
It doesn't need,
A thing

Hold,
To broken wings,
Girl

The world,
Can watch this body sing/sink,
Sing

It wasn't like you?
By surprise

To empty oceans,
Through plain and faded eyes

It wasn't like you?
To start

The leading reason for the beating of my heart

Hold,
On to me,
Girl

The world,
It doesn't need,
A thing

Hold,
To broken wings,
Girl

The world,
Can watch this body,
Break

Lying awake,
Lying to you

These tides will break,
If you want them to--when you cross the moon

Who floods my mind,
With what self-destructive habits this time?

So easy to feel alive (When your heart is on fire),
With failing wings at my side

At my side,
You shouldn't feel this way--it's alright

You shouldn't,
Be afraid--it's alright

You shouldn't,
Walk away yet--it's alright

You shouldn't believe
(You should know)

Hold,
On to me,
Girl

The world,
It doesn't mean a thing

Hold,
on to Hope,
Girl

The world,
Can watch these bodies'

Wings."
