In this bed of love we lie
Serenity in the shade of night
Protection from our tragedies
Ensure this sleep protecting me
My eyes dart open
I hope to see
My eyes wide open
Protecting me
It keeps me running,
Keeps me running from anger...
And you are oh, so beautiful
"A guinea-pig, helpless - this life I touch. My hands, cradled direction, unaided by the sense to protect - or the understanding of vulnerability from the eyes of a giant, yet understanding cruelty from the eyes of the small."
And still the beasts breathe deep within
Poised to act when sleep begins
This bed of love is my denial
Escape my crimes not seen by trial
Monsters - all
We've come to be
Monsters - all
We've come to be
It keeps me running,
Keeps me running from anger...
And you are oh, so beautiful
