Take my hand though you never see it
When it's right in front of your eyes
Let me hold you close i can see your shaking
And your blood has been sucked dry
You give your soul to all willing takers
So you'll feel them touch your core
Oh how they love you now but they'll leave you later
Yeah they'll leave you with no more
I wait as you wander without me
I turn when you're cursin my name
I sit by your side when you scream
But i never run
No i never run from you
You knit your yarn into woven blankets
In a palace built for silk
And you drink your spit when your lungs are burning
Though i brought you cows to milk
Paint your lips with my words and wisdom
So you won't misunderstand
I am not just light i am not just fire
I am all that you desire and...
I wait as you wander without me
I turn when you're cursin my name
I sit by your side when you scream
But i never run
No i never run from you
I know some nights when you hear me callin
Oh you wish we'd never met
But when you're all alone wonderin' where you came from
I'll never let you forget how...
I wait as you wander without me
I turn when you're cursin my name
I sit by your side when you scream
But i never run
No i never run from you
