Stay

There’s a certain look that lies Behind your sunken eyes, I know How shadows fall across your face You breathed and gave them life Didn’t you wonder how they know All your nightmares and your memories? Wouldn’t it be grand to never face the morning sun? Don’t you long to rest your weary head for good? By the light of the crescent moon, I’ll pray your soul will keep So close your eyes, close your eyes When the sun slips down to dusk Beneath the horizon where you’ll be All but enveloped by your sins, Watch your body turn to dust Tossed to the wind and scattered by All your nightmares and your memories Darling, I’ve got you now, don’t you cry The pain only lingers if you fight Hush now, my dear, you’ve nothing to fear It’s only the end come to take you to sleep
