The taste of fear is familiar here
Bitter words spoken through blood mixed with wine
Teeth can be broken by chance or design
The fist of fate
When hindsight is granted it’s always too late
I hate to seem faithless in light of this grace
My panic is faceless, my fear of this place
Will you hold me now
Will you hold me now
I’m trying to trust you but wondering how
The wounds lie deep
I cringe at my shadow, cry out in my sleep
This fevered resistance, defense from my past
You’ve keep your distance, embrace me at last
Will you hold me now
Will you hold me now
A kiss on my cheek and a hand on my brow
Will you hold me now
Will you hold me now
Will you hold me now
As much the survivor as death will allow
Will you hold me now
Will you hold me now
These tears of surrender my passionate vow
Will you hold me…
