You Could Be My Sanctuary

by Freya Ward

/

lyrics

Speak once but think twice, always
Don’t you know some words can stain?
You scrub them off but they still stay to
Remind you of the mess you made
Memories of the mess you made

Bite your tongue until it hurts
Do not let the cruellest words
Escape into the atmosphere
Do not let them linger here
Do not let them linger here

You could be my sanctuary
I could be the air you need
So let it go
I’m coming home

Clench your fists, but then release
Look over, but do not leap
Send it up and set it free
Hold on tight to what you keep
Hold on tight to what you keep

I could be your sanctuary
You could be the air I need
So let it go
I’m coming home
Let it go
I’m coming home
