I can see you've got a lock on your heart
Guarding arteries making sure you'll never bleed
You won't let yourself fall,
I don't blame you at all.
because I've got these hands wrapped up in scars.
Telling me a thousand reasons why I should let you walk on by
When the desert cries out for rain,
does it always fall apart on their fears?
I need you, I need you
I need you
I can see I won't ever tear down your walls
with anything less than a salt stained army.
You've already made up your mind,
and I've wasted too much time.
But I've got these plans inside my head
giving me a thousand reasons I should stop you in your tracks.
When the desert cries out for rain,
does it always fall apart on their fears?
I need you, I need you
I need you
Shaking at the knees, shaking at the knees.
I try to act steady
But my efforts are so petty
I can see you're scared, and I'm scared too.
I'm not going anywhere without you.
And I promised myself I wouldn't let you walk by...

You won't let yourself fall,
I don't blame you at all.
