My life was like growing grass
With a hope of sunshine in mind
Waiting to evaporate
What raindrops had been left behindI'll crunch under your footsteps
And I'll dance with the wind
I have hope set apart
With no place to beginI'll reach up to the sky
I'll be a comfort to your mind
Lay down beside me
And we'll watch the stars collide
I'll colour all your senses
And I'll wash away your pridePlease just stay beside me
I'll wrap you in growing life
Until your bones grow weak and weary
Until the ground has swallowed your light
The world will keep on turning
So look into my eyesFrigid as the cold
As your swallowed by the sun
I'll hold you tight
I'll keep you safe
Stay until all battles are wonA grassy hill
From sunset to stars
We will weep for each other
Watch the moon in their arms
And to the clouds and the earth
Let them hold you at bay
You can't leave me now
With still so much left to sayYou stand up
Walk away
But take a moment
If you mayListen to my thoughts
For all I wish is for you to see
To notice every part and piece
That breaks when you no longer think of meBut there is hope that survives
In the dead of the night
It lives in my thoughts
Chained in my my mindAll alone
At break of dawn
I'll wait until something better
Decides to come along
