Safety in my Veins
There's a dragon guarding my mind
You sang and he let you pass
It's a dark tunnel from my head to my heart
You lit candles along the way
My nightmares fled in fear of you
My shadows were surprised by you
They told you my secrets and embraced yours
Everything in me
save my consciousness
let you in
You put peace in my blood
Safety in my viens
My heartbeat slowly fell into the rhythm of yours
Now I'm alone
I have to tell my lungs to inhale
They don't always remember
Since your breath isn't here to remind them
