Hold my hand and Hold my faith

Give me my place

For destruction comes, and I can see its face.

-

For where were many, now are few

I am destined to be alone with you

For just a moment, I’ll take your hand

And then cast you off without a second glance

I must be alone forever.

-

If there must be death between us,

You will die and not I

I do not wish to go

To the sublime

-

If to meet my maker

Is my destiny

Then I will go

But not with you

I will go alone.

-

I lay here thinking

‘I brought this on myself’

I realize that you

Cannot die

You were never meant to.

-

When I saw my vision of death

It was a death between us,

Not your death as I thought,

I know now,

It was my own.

-

If only I wasn’t all alone

If only I had you to call my own.
