Hold

Love, dry your eyes
I hold you inside
Let all of this beauty fall
Let it fall through you now
Cast off the mantle of Atlas
And let me hold your sadness
The offering hand
Bridging the sky and the land

Darling I know how you've cried
Shuddering chasms of mind
Oh there is nothing to say
To chase such shadows away
So I will hold on
Hold on with you

Courage it seems
A never ending bleed
What use is vanquishing the night
Only to be blinded by the light
Sometimes it's living each bated breath
To find yet another left
The heart pounding still
Is your true strength of will

Darling I know how you've tried
To banish all those cracks that you hide
No I won't let you go
Into the darkness alone
So I will hold on
Hold on with you

Darling I know of your tides
Filaments of moon spun desires
Held in that long, deep sea
Is such knowing of me
Please won't you hold on
Hold on with me

Love, dry your eyes
I hold you inside
