Please Fill in the Blank

Shivering alone in this cave of mine
Lost, without a plan
Cursing, who I am
Then suddenly your whispers play
I hear promise of a wonderland
I gently reach for your

 

HAND!
IN MINE
INTERTWINED
A LIGHT ENTERED THE DARK
I FELT
MY HEART
HUSH HAPPILY WITH DELIGHT

 

Now I have you here and I truly see
This cave of my memory is not a home for me

 

Mesmerized by the light in your eyes
Shimmering, with life
Happy, unlike mine
You promised you'd take me away
So I believed in you
And you believed in

 

ME!
MY FLOOD
MY CRY
WE DANCED OUT OF THE DARK
I FELT
A SPARK
RUSH ME BACK TO LIFE

 

Now I have you here and I truly believe
The wonderland you're from is where I want to be

 

I'm scared, I'll fail, I'll break again
As free as I am I feel the haunt of a hazy requiem
Numb from constant hesitation
Swimming in a pool of godly medicine

 

"Come, come" I hear you calling me
yelling, you're an angel
My only chance at ever feeling happy and heavenly again
Give me life

 

ME
I CRIED
OUT "GOD"
YOU SAVED ME FROM THE DARK
I FELT
YOUR HEART
BLUSH SOMBERLY BEFORE MY LIGHT

 

This wonder is not a land
It's my own, it's within me
My god it feels the way you promised it to be
