Promise me tonight

And when I run,

Or when I walk away,

Promise me tonight,

You will hold me in your arms


My dreams came,

Cursed me in your name,

I cannot stay,

'cause then it won't be the same,

I tried to be,

What I wanted to be,

But my demons came,

and now I have to flee


And when I fall,

Or when I am walking dead,

Promise me tonight,

You'll hold me in your arms


My nightmares came,

And he along with them,

I've got to pay my dues,

And that's my soul, what then,

Will you hate my real?

Or will you love me despite?

You're the one I want to see,

When my life is blown up like dynamite


And when I fly,

Lifeless through the night sky,

Promise me tonight,

You'll hold me in your arms


I now see the colors of his sound,

I can taste the corpses he's left behind,

His dark hood, his scythe, his hound,

He's come for me so here's what's on my mind,

I hope from here there is a next,

Where I will find you and bathe you in kisses

like sunlight to the ocean,

And if there's none, I'm content,

with being in your arms where I'm fine. I'm Okay


So when I'm gone,

Or when life sips off my bone,

Promise me tonight,

You'll hold me in your arms
