Please pass Us by

We can't beat it, but maybe it will pass us by.

That ever waiting beast
can’t be beat,
lurking near in shadows
so far away
that I could gaze for
eternity, and hurt for
as long
and as hard as I stare
it won’t let me see
What might be there
or could be near

But if you hide here
in this haven I’ll
create for you
It might just pass us by
It may not look this way

We could lay here
suspended in this sanctuary
And if I saw the creature soaring by.
It wouldn’t matter

Cause with you time
flies by.
