I was hanging on by a thread,

My heart pounding all night,

I felt the thunder rage across the seas,

But you, you were my Kryptonite,

The storms swirled above us,

The rain pouring down on our heads,

I saw boats tumble in it's wake,

But you, you held me up instead,

Our boat rocked back and forth,

The waves crashing against the stern,

I heard the mast break in two,

But you, you kept the flickering flame burn,

The boat rolled against the coast,

There were bodies stretching for miles,

Up and down I saw the red run free,

But you, you put together the tiles,

My thoughts hopeless,

Life itself seemed bleak,

The blood ran through my fingers,

But you, you were all I seek,

The search party disbanded,

The lost hope was found once again,

A smile stole a part of my mouth away,

But you, you kept me sane.
