I dare

"Do you dare touch my scorned face?"
- A Blessing in Tragedy


I remember how your eyelashes curl
How could I forget the palm of your hands?
Or the lines around your mouth as you smile?
When you've brought back the moon
And the fire in my hair

Darling...
Save the facade for the outside
Even the best of hereos fall and cry
Don't be fooled by my silence
And lay here inside with me
inside of me, safe with me

I see the man underneath it all
The blankets, the screams
And the blood that you wear
doesn't scare me as much anymore

I'll be the woman who dares
to stay forever this time
If you let me

I'm no saviour
But I'll be there

I'll be there
Now will you let me?

No goodbyes this time
