Shelter Lyrics

My body is a shelter for an animal
And if you never leave me, I will stay your wrecking ball
And I will be so quiet when you're asleep
Though I will stay wide awake

So let my heart be your shelter
I will confine you and keep you safe
But maybe we were wrong
To think we'd stay in love
Unlike our grandparents who sleep states apart.


I need a pill to sleep
'cause my mind won't let me
I'm afraid that I still need you

My bones are brittle, dear
So will you walk me home?
I'm afraid that I still need you

But maybe we were wrong
To think we'd stay in love
Unlike our grandparents who sleep states apart
