Hold Me Now

As I look at my scarlet hands

Realizing what you did

Going back in time

Reliving those moments

over and over again in my head

It is there playing

Like an old record

That just keeps going on

I look around

And realize you're looking at me

Looking at my scarlet hands

Realizing what you did

Reliving those moments

Over and over again in your head

I fall to the ground

Feel the pain

Feel it wash over me

Like a great monsoon

I look back up at you

And you fall beside me

Take me in your arms

Just hold me now

Dont worry,

the pain is leaving

And I am feeling a calm

A calm I thought I would never feel

There are tears in your eyes

As you realize what youve done

I feel your tears wash over me

I feel their salt in my wounds

But I feel no pain

Youre begging for forgivness

Just hold me now

And all is forgiven
