Promise me you'll be by my side
When everything is heavenly and pure
Or when I bring hell fire and brimstone
And trap you in the worst circle of all
Number 7
Hold my hand tight in yours
When we walk calmly in a dreamland
Filled with tulips and daisies
Or sprint through a treacherous war zone
With no escape to a land full of peace
Always be my source of support
When the world is resting in my palm
Or I'm left to balance its weight upon my shoulders
Destined to be the female Atlas
Make me a promise
That you will always love me
When my heart is warm and overflowing with love
Or when it's plagued by an Ice Age
And becomes cold as stone
Just like those who look at the treacherous Medusa
And lastly please promise me
That you will hold my heart close to you
Keep it safely locked away near yours
Only take it out when you have some Elmer's
And want to mend the scars of my broken past
So one day you can have my full heart
In any situation
