Trust

I don’t know how I’ll get through this
What’s even happening?
What did they find?
My mother’s scared to say a word
My son screams silently
We’re out of time
And I cannot accept this now
They say there’s nothing I can do
To be the one to lead you through
And I fall, shattering my knees
You’re the only one I see
You’re the only one who knows me
I pull you gently close to me
Lay your head down slow
«I am here.»
I say
Your body is growing tired
The wind blows quietly
For you I pray
And I stare straight into your eyes
Tell you there’s nothing you should fear
Promise your path will be clear
And I sing you lullabies
Perhaps there’s another time
Together you and I will fight
I’ll keep you safe
Safe inside my Rib Cage
And I’ll keep you safe
Safe inside my, safe inside my
Safe inside of my Rib Cage
I’ll keep you safe, safe inside my Rib Cage
I, I, I, I’ll keep you safe, safe inside my Rib Cage
(Rib Cage)
And I’ll keep you safe, safe inside my
Safe inside my, safe inside my…
Rib Cage…
