Stay Lyrics

Album: Solveig

There’s a certain look that lies

Behind your sunken eyes, I know

How shadows fall across your face

You breathed and gave them life

Didn’t you wonder how they know

All your nightmares and your memories?

Wouldn’t it be grand to never face the morning sun?

Don’t you long to rest your weary head for good?

By the light of the crescent moon, I’ll pray your soul will keep

So close your eyes, close your eyes

When the sun slips down to dusk

Beneath the horizon where you’ll be

All but enveloped by your sins,

Watch your body turn to dust

Tossed to the wind and scattered by

All your nightmares and your memories

Darling, I’ve got you now, don’t you cry

The pain only lingers if you fight

Hush now, my dear, you’ve nothing to fear

It’s only the end come to take you to sleep
