Hypnotize

i stare into your dead eyes
your hypnotic gaze soothes the cries
of a million babies
lying in bed dreaming of you
your ghostly appearance
applaud to appease
don't go i beg you please
you're all i've ever wanted
i've come so far
i wish i could thank
but speechless for once
is it wrong?
wait for the embers
they were never made
believe it's true
pick the string
that strung the bold
hold back the tears
dont't give don't fold
hold on to me
i'll hold on to you
on a night like this
it'll all come true
