don't be empty, boy..

grasp my hand and we'll walk
palm in palm with our hearts

find my pulse and we'll
fight our way to the stars..


you don't have time to stop
and think, baby.

for once just look into my eyes
and be happy because i want you to be.

if not for yourself..

for me..


you make me feel like i'm
on a concrete balancing beam
walking straight into headlights..

and you're still by my side.. but on
the ground.. waiting to catch me.

i trust you'll save me from
this whatever whichever fate.


let me patch the bullet holes in
your heart and wrap you up in
a blanket of warmth..

i'll hum to you if you promise
to sleep..

if you promise to wake up in the morning.


don't hurt for anyone else..
please don't trip over someone
else's mistakes.

grasp my hand, sweet boy.

i'll pull you to the heavens
and strip the lead sheets from
your chest..

just smile for me.

find my pulse and remember
that you have someone else.

and i love you.
