Giant Tourniquet

Grab a hold of me as quickly as you can Please make sure your grip is tight more than its ever been The key to my survival, You're the chance I have to live You are my giant tourniquet You hold what I can't give. And anytime I feel the urge to empty out my life The pressure of your presence let's me know that I'm alright My joy is only compromised by lack of guiding light So when its dark I guide my walk by looking in your eyes I wish this scene were not just played on repeat in my head I wish my gaze could be returned so I am not in debt I've used you as my building block I've used you as my rock I only hope you see all this as more than merely thought.
