Embrace

I cried enough that night
To last a million lifetimes
Yet that memory
Won't let go
If I could
I would just let it out
'Coz in my eyes
The terror's hiding
It's easier to see
It ain't wasting away
So here I am
Not close to dying
After all the years
Feigning life
I'm not running away
Nowhere to hide
Open up your arms
Protect me
Even as I do
The same for you
