A Deathless Song

Let me beat in your heart Be your drum of war and love Let me hide in your arms Be my cage, my key, my lock Let our bones collide Until the light falls like anvils from our eyes When our dreams ignite Disappear in their fire Be my deathless song Fill my aching lungs Breathe your life into me Because I drown in your shadow Like salt in the rain If my fear is tomorrow Your memory’s the fight in my veins Let me beat in your heart Be your drum of war and love Let me hide in your arms Be my cage, my key, my lock Let our bones collide Until the light falls like anvils from our eyes When our dreams ignite Disappear in their fire Be my open sky Fill these wild eyes Breathe your life into me Because I drown in your shadow Like salt in the rain If my fear is tomorrow Then your memory’s the fight in my veins
