Please don't leave
Believe in me
I would not lie among the artifacts
Within the sacristy
I know theyâre sacred
I know we stand in hallowed halls
I would not speak with such conviction
If I did not fear for us all
But something happened
Something changed
Since we met yesterday evening
The symbols all have rearranged
This now reads âFireâ
That one says âFlameâ
And my transcription might be off a bit,
But I think that one says âPrayâ
Gather yourself
I need you calm and collected
I feel your dread. I know the fear.
But these thoughts are crippling you
Hold your head high like the minarets
We havenât been beaten yet
When the whole world starts to pirouette
Let me be your safety net
I know that youâre scared of the local lore
But weâve conquered worse before
The soothsayers canât always be correct
âbout what hasnât happened yet
Hold your head high like the palace walls
Weâre fearless. We stand up tall.
We wonât be afraid of our fates at all
Weâll be brave when judgment calls
If the ground opens up to swallow
The love that weâve built
Will our world end in grief or elation
trepidation or guilt?
Itâs all for naught
The worldâs gone to pot
And no heavenâs waitinâ on me
But, when Iâm down where itâs warm
Would you still call me yours?
I think Iâd still like to be
