Saving Grace (collaboration with dolore-perdita)

Your lips against mine are a spark and I hope we set the world on fire

I’m caught between a bed and a soft place

What no one knows is that the sky’s designed to fall so we need hope to survive

Please believe that I’m worth fighting for

I need reassurance that I’m worth saving

Your voice in my ear is the whisper of the wind and I want to hear it always

been building storm shelters for our bodies

But they’re keeping us both out in the hurricane

Please believe that I can break down these glass walls

And let you in to save me

Your hand in mine is a promise and I’m expecting this one to keep

I’m wishing on every star that passes us by as we walk

You tell me to not get discouraged just because they all keep falling

You say that we’re supposed to wish on the ones that fall

“They’re the closest to heaven that we’ll feel tonight”

But I believe that’s when I’ll take you to a field of gold

And tell you of all the reasons why you still shine brighter

I’ll hold you close and we’ll use hope as our new shelter

Your heart is one half of the moon, burning luminescent

like a candle that has only just been lit

You want me to know that it will never be blown out

As long as I’m with you

So we’ll wander these empty forests for years to find glimpses

of our former selves,and we’ll hide under these trees

that will eventually save us.
