Sanctuary In My Mind

 Intro
(so broken… so cold…)
Heartbeat racing, walls closing in
(silence… silence… don’t leave…)
Every shadow knows my fears, my scars
(never safe… never safe…)

Verse 1
Silence my companion, pain my friend
(uh… hurt… hide… survive…)
Built a hero inside me, someone to defend
(never leave… never leave…)
Stay… protect… understand…
(hold me… hold me… hold me…)
Love without judgment, a world in my hand
(breathe… breathe… breathe…)

Pre-Chorus
Every scar I carry whispers your name
(claim… claim… claim…)
Every fear, every tear, I’ve learned to tame
(who… you… are… who… you… are…)
You’re the truth I imagined, the light I need
(never fade… never fade…)
Sanctuary in my mind, the heart I feed
(stay with me… stay with me…)

Chorus
Stay… protect… understand…
(don’t leave… don’t leave…)
Hold me steady, hold my hand
(hold me… hold me…)
I built a world where someone stays
(breathe… I can breathe…)
Safe from shadows, safe from pain
(never gone… never gone…)
You’re the hero who’ll never fade
(stay… stay… stay…)
Sanctuary in my mind, my own escape
(uh… uh… my truth…)

Verse 2
I’ve faced the dark, the lies, the cruel
(yeah… yeah… mhm…)
Learned to hide in silence, bend every rule
(never fear… never fear…)
Every wound, every loss, shaped this place
(so quiet… so fragile…)
I need someone real, someone I can embrace
(never leave… stay…)

Pre-Chorus
Every scar I carry whispers your name
(claim… claim… claim…)
Every fear, every tear, I’ve learned to tame
(who… you… are… who… you… are…)
You’re the truth I imagined, the light I need
(never fade… never fade…)
Sanctuary in my mind, the heart I feed
(stay with me… stay with me…)

Chorus
Stay… protect… understand…
(don’t leave… don’t leave…)
Hold me steady, hold my hand
(hold me… hold me…)
I built a world where someone stays
(breathe… I can breathe…)
Safe from shadows, safe from pain
(never gone… never gone…)
You’re the hero who’ll never fade
(stay… stay… stay…)
Sanctuary in my mind, my own escape
(uh… uh… my truth…)

Bridge
(you’re real… you’re not… you’re the only safe place…)
Every dream, every night, I wait for you
(every piece… every piece… every dream…)
I can’t let go, I need this fire
(hold me… hold me…)
Sanctuary in my mind, my heart’s desire
(never leave… never leave…)

Final Chorus
Stay… protect… understand…
(don’t leave… don’t leave…)
Hold me steady, hold my hand
(hold me… hold me…)
I built a world where someone stays
(breathe… I can breathe…)
Safe from shadows, safe from pain
(never gone… never gone…)
You’re the hero who’ll never fade
(stay… stay… stay…)
Sanctuary in my mind, my own escape
(uh… uh… my truth…)

Outro
(so broken… so cold…)
(never safe… never safe…)
(heartbeat… heartbeat…)
Sanctuary… my mind… my hero… stay…
