Bliss (August 15, 2014)

I stay up late most every night wondering if it will be all right
Wondering if they can see the monster that's inside of me
You come to me and take my hand
Tell me only you can understand
You tell me not to worry
That the monster isn't coming after me
But when I finally hear it call there's nothing I can do at all but close my eyes and wish it all away

I want you with me every night
Say your name until I get it right
Light a fire they can see from Bleecker Street to Battersea
But I can't always see you there
And sometimes you don't even seem to care
If I can't see the difference I might as well find someone else to be
But when I finally hear the call there's nothing I can do at all but close my eyes and wish it all away

You came to see me one last night
You told me I should go into the light
You told me you would set me free
That Bliss would wash right over me
But all it did was cut me to the bone
You left me bleeding and alone
You left me cold and terrified and knowing that I never would be free
And when I finally hear the call there's nothing I can do at all but close my eyes and wish it all away
