Our Tomorrow

I see the bombs within your hands

And the scars against your heart

I can hear the memories of yesterdays 

Of bullets too close

But not far enough from a friend

I feel the battle within you 

Raging on against you 

And every action and inaction you've ever committed 

But today you stand against all that may strike me down

And whisper the promises of tomorrow 

You find solace within these hands of mine

Reminding me I am yours

Against the screaming inside your mind 

You find strength to tell me 

"It will be ok"

And with you 

it is

So we walk together 

into the sweet tomorrows you've built for me
