I won't be back here, Though we may meet again. I know it's dark outside, Don't be afraid, Everytime I ever cried from fear, Was just a mistake that I made, Wash yourself in your tears, And build your church, On the strength of your faith. Please, Listen to me, Don't let go, Don't let this desperate moonlight leave me, With your empty pillow, Promise me the sun will rise again. I too am tired now, Embracing thoughts of tonight's dreamless sleep, My head is empty, My toes are warm, I am safe from harm...
