Vigilant Wolf

Here, I'm always here

Even before you knew

Waiting patiently

Licking my wounds

Nothing is as it was

And will never be

Come, I will protect you

Trust me.

I'll shield you with myself

Every single part

build walls of my love

Locked by my sin

bath you in my darkness

surround you with my light

if they want to get you

they'll have to go through me first

lay your bones on my own

settle your heart on my chest

I don't want to go anywhere

And we both need to rest.

These days are long and getting longer

These battles have me worn

You're tired these days and getting colder

So cast your ice on my warmth

-

I fight on and on

Though this might be my last

Because totally and completely

I want you with me
