Spend Some Time Hanging Out Inside Your Soul

gave me the key to your soul
"come inside", you said and stay for a while

spent some time hanging out inside your soul
as the days pass by I come to feel at home
uncovering these cracks and holes you hide inside 
realizing that's what makes you so incredible

the world outside spinning around 
and here we sit warmed by your heart
those flames keeping us safe and sound 
your love our guarding hound

spent some time hanging out inside your soul
your favorite thoughts pumping out your stereo
snuggled up on your couch we watch your memories play
frame by frame the scenes of your sad and happy

the world outside cannot understand
a place where beds are never made
you can always find a warm bed
a place to rest your heavy head

gave me the map to your soul
"get ready", you said and get lost inside of me
