Ocean of Another

Tear the tears out of my open eyes
 For I no longer need to drown
 In the ocean of another
 Tear the tears out of my open eyes
 Above a buried garden we've both lived in
 And bring me back to life
 I promised I'd be devoid of devotion
 Until a blinding light could thaw me from my core
 Shining between the lips of lacerations
 As we compare the way that we burn to the sun
 Throw yourself into the middle of my arms
 And I swear I'll keep you safe
 The scars that you keep secret were placed upon my limbs
 And I would fill them in with my flesh if I could
 I swear I'll keep you safe
 Tear the tears out of my open eyes
 For I no longer need to drown
 In the ocean of another
 Tear the tears out of my open eyes
 Above a buried garden we've both lived in
 And bring me back to life
 Pull the nameless arrow from my chest
 And exchange it with your own
 Replace the hurt within me with a stare
 That watches over me
 When I allow myself to sleep
 The scars that you keep secret were placed upon my limbs
 And I would fill them in with my flesh if I could
 (So throw yourself into the middle of my arms
 And I swear I'll keep you safe)
 Tear the tears out of my open eyes
 For I no longer need to drown
 In the ocean of another
 Tear the tears out of my open eyes
 Above a buried garden we've both lived in
 To bring me back to life
