Desolate Earth

I'd rather you break my heart than I break yours

Leave me be so I can rot in peace

You know where you’ll find me if you ever change course

Forever too afraid to move on in release

Step carefully through the fabricated havoc in my mind

It's a minefield in here but I know you'll be fine

Cause I’ve been building a coffin and I've left a trail

Of memories leading to the last nail

All I need is your hammer and your hands so soft

Don't let me go when I finally drop

Slowly interlock your fingers in mine

I swear to you we'll last a lifetime

Oh, please promise me we'll last a lifetime

Take my hand, let me love you to death

Look into my eyes as if they're the last thing you'll see

On this desolate earth you're all I have left

No matter how much it hurts, please don’t set me free

A love like mine is hard to find

My calloused hands and twisted mind

Aren’t worth a second of your time

Once you find yourself, you'll leave me behind

I remember when you looked into my eyes

And I said without you I’d be a nervous wreck

I sincerely hope we never say our goodbyes

Cause I never want to wake up in someone else's bed

Oh won't you keep me safe in your bed?

Take my hand, don't let go

Oh won’t you keep me safe in your bed?

Cause these nights are hard to get through

And I don't know where I'd be without you

Interlock your fingers in mine

I swear to you we'll last a lifetime

Take my hand, let me love you to death

Look into my eyes as if they're the last thing you'll see

On this desolate earth you're all I have left

No matter how much it hurts, please don't set me free
