I will find sanctuary in your arms,
Even if they’re weak,
Even if they’re broken,
They will save me from a dream unspoken,
Not my nightmare,
No.
Leave me there.
They’re much closer to reality than I would ever know.
Create a shield between us and the rest,
Make me feel like I need not look in the shadows,
To find happiness,
To find acceptance,
Long dragged from the past,
Now worn and raggedy.
No sir, just hold me in your arms.
I shall find sanctuary on my own,
With the bruised and forlorn.
They would know.
I will find sanctuary.
In all I need to be,
All I want to be.
No.
All I am.
Yes sir, I will find sanctuary.
So keep me in your arms,
Keep me safe from harm.
And I will find sanctuary.
