Baby Girl, Let's Fall Asleep Forever

by Lost & Delirious   Jun 25, 2006


Baby girl, I remember when you were a stranger,
And your pain and scars seemed far away from me.
I couldn't understand why your eyes yelled danger,
Didn't even know how broken you could be.

I knew I was missing something about you,
You were hiding shame reasons behind your eyes.
I was scared of what you would possibly do,
Of the desperate feelings twisting your mind.

I wanted to help you, but I had no words,
To show you how everything would be fine.
I wanted to hold you and never let go,
To have your torn heart close to mine.

Today I have changed, now I'm your closest friend,
Being your friend hurts since I live your pain.
I kiss your scars and your mistakes try to mend,
Being in your mind makes my life insane.

I see you everyday, you live in my reflection,
I taste your tears and touch your fake smile.
I know we're lost, and tired of rejections,
There's no place to go to save what's inside.

It's just the two of us, so take my hand,
Let's fall asleep forever and live in dreams.
Forget about how things used to be and dance,
I don't know how to fix us, so let's just breathe.
