Only Solace

Show me a sky filled with birds Dancing across the brilliant horizon Say you love me without any words Let me forget the arms I’ve cried in. Well stay there on a perfect shore And leave behind everything else I don’t want to hear them anymore I only want to see, touch and smell Let me lay on the beach caressed by waves Let them sweep me far out to sea Please, just make everything okay Don’t make me go back to being me Because she was betrayed so deep inside By a man that she thought was trust incarnate And this is the only place she has to hide If she went back now she wouldn’t make it. I know its late, please stop looking at the time Just give me a few more precious ticks This is the only place I know I won’t lose my mind Now I may survive one more day of him,
