A Safe Place

A salty fist in my chest

Please no explanation, its your time to be angry now

Could I possibly be so selfish as to take that away?

To compare myself

I'm so miserably pathetic and helpless again

I'm so little lying next to you, in this cold sweat of mine

My sympathizing, however honest, still a belittlement

I can't heal a thing

What god is responsible

I can only hold your hand

Live. Dehydrated, nothing pacified

You can disassociate yourself

Tools of your trade, survival

It's the only safe place left anymore

But can you tell me, are you here now?

Is my touch touching you, or that tool of yours?

I saved all the debt for you, you're still in debt

You're broken wings I have taken on to mend

And right now I'd do the same onto you if it would change a thing

If I could cripple your mind again

If it were my place

Grant her the wings, grant her the gift to cope

You leave her no choice than to steal her birthright

Children don't cry tears of guilt for the sins of their predators
