Darling,

pull me out

from the obsidian dark.

Show me the stars.

I'm slipping

and I don't know

how to stop.

Where's the hole

that I carved into your heart?

I thought I could

stay there,

safe.



Darling,

take me in your arms

and dance the life

back into my eyes.

I'm fading

and giving way

to giving up.

Where's the hole

that I carved into your heart?

I thought I could

stay there,

safe.



Darling,

don't leave me

in the obsidian dark.

Where's the hole

that I carved into your heart?

Tell me I can

stay there,

safe.
