Only To Keep You

Something I stood on, without remorse Trampled on your ability, your natural elation. For a past I regreted, the harm in your life Now I hope the contention remains. Your showcase a lie, in private your weak My fault from childhood, keeping me able. Selfish and jealous I will stay, until we become one again. No longer the beast who crushed your soul The only one who can return your vigor. In my desperation, i hope fears hold Conserve your touch, abide with me. Keep your pain from yesterday, Until we become one again.
