I Will Bleed For You

Shift ends for
Stars and fear
New sun will
Soon be here

Tingling toes
Numb fingers
Four A.M
Chill lingers

Night monsters
Drenched in light
Start to fade
Lose their might

Clean slate skies;
Solid blue
I think of you

As you walk through
All the barbed wire
Of the day
Look away, love
And I will bleed
For you

And if your eyes
Become jaded
Lose their spark
I'll re-kindle
Them with my own
Fi-re

Shift ends for
Daydreams dear
Moon's solace
Nearly here

Treasured songs
Wash away
The tarnish
Of the day

Cascading
Memories fight
Keeping me
From the night

Warm pictures
To cling to
I think of you

As you walk through
All the barbed wire
Of the day
Look away, love
And I will bleed
For you

And if your eyes
Become jaded
Lose their spark
I'll re-kindle
Them with my
Un-fading fire

Through every year
Through every tear
Just know this:
I'll be gentle and strong
Let me come along
I will bleed for you

Shift ends for
Stars and fear
And I pray
Hope's sunrise
Will brighten
Every day

As you walk through
All the barbed wire
I'll be there too
Close your eyes or
Look away, love
And I will bleed;
Bleed for you
