lyrics

Verse

Most of my life
I spiral out of control
Breaking off the pieces that I wish would stay whole
Getting used to always picking myself up from this cold floor

But since the day I met you
Everything began to change
Trials in my life, one by one
Would disarrange
Never thought I would see life outside of this self made cage

Chours

Dark days
They're still coming
But I know that I'll be safe in your arms

My feet
They ain't running
Cause I want to be wherever you are

Oh
I'll hold you till the pain goes away

We're gonna be ok

Verse

When it comes to my heart
I guard it close to my chest
Choices that I've made have turned my life to a mess
The times I've spent with you made me feel like
I've been blessed

My walls keep coming down
Every time you're next to me
You helped restore my faith
So I can walk where I can't see

Verse

This world takes what it wants
Never cares who it hurts
Try to make it better
End up making it worse

But know that you and I, side by side, we'll make this work

You help me to be strong
When the world is unforgiving
When I'm beating down
Your love gives me the healing

Your presence in my life give me purpose for the bleeding

Dark days
They're still coming
But I know that I'll be safe in your arms

My feet
They ain't running
Cause I want to be wherever you are

Oh
I'll hold you till the pain goes away

Because I'm here to stay.
