In My Arms - Eldest 11

I wake to the sun going down.

The repetitions make me cold.

And Nose Bleeds and Dark things following me…

The Darkness soothes me so it can hide all my imperfections.

To be alive?

To keep holding on so tight?

When it wears on a soul that’s losing light,

and a past I can’t let go of.

(Not proud of)

But then I saw her standing there…

Looking in my eyes.

(Look) Long hair…

The world STOPS and I’m scared!

(I face my fear)

I’m not what you think I am.

The wear and tear Ends a solar flare…

Needing repair!

ME?

I’ve never been so happy!

(We lived through hell)

We lived through all the harms.

In the storms, I found you in the calm.

(Down in the dirt)

but I’d rather you be in my arms.

ME?

I’ve never been so happy!

(We lived through hell)

Completely Disarmed.

In the storms, I found you in the calm.

(Down in the dirt)

but I’d rather you be in my arms.

I’m not perfect.

I’ll never be but that’s part of my mystery.

(and my dark things)

I gave up a search because I never felt someone would love me.

To be alive?

To keep holding on so tight?

When it wears on a soul that’s losing light.

And you see… things are never given to those that seek.

But then I saw her standing there…

Looking in my eyes.

Long hair…

The world STOPS and I’m scared!

I’m not what you think I am.

The wear and tear Ends a solar flare…

Needing repair!

(I've never been so happy)

and scared… Sometimes we got to wait for the right time.

It’ll happen on its own without forcing things along.

ME?

I’ve never been so happy!

(We lived through hell)

We lived through all the harms.

In the storms, I found you in the calm.

(Down in the dirt)

but I’d rather you be in my arms.

JUST WAIT…

YOU’LL NEVER FORGET ME…
