Wrapped inside you like a diamond waiting for the dark to burn away counting on your heartbeat's constant rhythm to carry me back to myself all of my thoughts, like junkyard dogs, guarding scraps of nothing filling my head with senseless things that keep me from you but I found the remedy I found the cure for Everything take me into your hands help me love a world that I don't understand lying in the grass I listened underneath a black sky soaked in stars til I heard the sound of my heart spinning all my panic into love out of the fire of false desire beat up but I'm breathing trying to stay wide awake while all the world's asleep chorus and you're taught to want all of life's shiny trinkets and you're hoping that they will save you but when it's all over none of these things will matter and you'll ask yourself 'did I love?' chorus
