Don'T Let Me Go
Don't let me go I need you.......
Pick me up and hold me in your arms
Talk to me and help me to be calm
My mind is racing, going round in circles
Never quiet, hurting,
Feeding all my demons
Giving them their ammo to destroy me
I can't take this
I'm so tired now, I'm totally exhausted
Pick me up and hold me 'till I'm calm
Talk to me and hold me in your arms
Reassurance, it's all that I'm asking
Need big love now, hug me
Hold me tighter, harder,
They're pulling me every direction
I can't take this
I'm so tired now, I'm totally exhausted
They are close now I can feel them taunting
I can sense them getting nearer to me
Breathing down my neck now need to fight now
Total panic, manic
Frightened getting frantic
Sweat is dripping off my back now
I can't take this
I'm so tired now, I'm totally exhausted
Pick me up and hold me in your arms
Talk to me and help me to be calm
It's in my head now My heart is thumping
Smell and taste around me
I don't see your face now.
Shaking so hard I feel so ill
I can't take this
I'm so tired now, I'm totally exhausted
Pick me up and hold me 'till I'm calm
Talk to me and hold me in your arms
I'm terrified now he's throwing venom
Aiming at my soul now
I let out a howl now
Pain is all about me and I fall
I can't take this
I'm so tired now, totally exhausted
Pick me up and hold me he is gone
Talk to me and hold me in your arms
My body feels like it has hit a wall now
My head is pounding now
My heart is bursting
I can barely move now he's left me
I can't take this
I'm so tired now, totally exhausted...............
