Restoration

I remember all those nights ago
When I was searching for some air worth breathing
And I remember all those fights ago
When I was searching for something worth believing

Nine years happiness contained
Then nine years of happiness abstained
Now only nine years remain
No one can feel my pain

My prison was so cold
Breath gave you away
No one to hold
Until she came along one day

They were wrong to take it from me
But was she right to give it back
She spoke in song and had the key
To put my life on track

She rescued me and spoke
"Will you go where I take you
Like you, my heart is broke."
And I know her words were true

We ran across the universe
Away from all the sin
Finally escaping our curse
At the edge of eternity and oblivion
