Hold me Leave me

pull me close beneath the fading light,

Then turn away before the morning comes.

I chase your shadow through the silent night,

A broken rhythm beating like a drum.

Hold me—

Till the walls begin to shake.

Leave me—

For the choices we can't make.

Hold me, leave me,

Love me, deceive me,

We're dancing on the edge of goodbye.

Hold me, leave me,

Need me, release me,

Two strangers learning how to survive.

The clock keeps turning circles in the dark,

While every word becomes a distant sound.

You strike a match and watch it make a spark,

Then disappear before it hits the ground.

Hold me, leave me,

Break me, remake me,

We're somewhere between wrong and right.

Hold me, leave me,

Find me, release me—

Then meet me again

On the other side.
