Just a personal song I wrote about a relationship
I was lost, long before I found you
Now I'm lost in all the things
that surround you

Sanctuary, save me for another day
Put me on your shelf and take me...

down when you wanna play

Won't you take my hand
lead me through this land
blind my face to all the things that
may strike me down for dead


When I fell into, came as no surprise
Seems I knew you,long before
I met those haunted eyes

First you tried to keep me
as I tried to break away
now no matter how hard I try, I
could never make you stay

running out that door
leaving me on the floor
dancing through the traffic
as I scuffle on the lawn

Once upon a time,
we gave our worlds up for each other
once upon a time you let me walk
I was fine with another lover

Once upon I time I climbed back in
while you used my addicted body
for your lonely, drunken sins

meaningless whispers of redemption
whispered in bed without real intention

Then you tossed me away
While I begged to stay
How could I go out there after
You'd stolen all I had

Now you're just fine
with your new cling-to
I'm still picking up my mess,
wond'ring what to do

If only your latest playtoy knew
The seduction is all for him
The sanctuary's always for you

someday you'll be alone like me
someday I'll show you that I'm free
Someday my time round here will end
On something new you'll fiend to depend

You'll never have it so good
