"In Her Hands"
Close your eyes against the reigning night
 It's okay that you're too weak to fight
 Nothing matters anymore
 Here where darkened angels soar
 Just let me hold you now tonight
 As we see this mythic sight
 
 Soft are the stars deep in the sky
 So sweet is time, creeping, crawling by
 It's okay, and it's all right
 To be scared today, tonight
 Stay here- I'll let you cry
 One last time before good-bye
 
 Don't rise, don't struggle from this eternal sleep
 It's okay- you're mine to keep
 Your thoughts- too little, too late, and so long ago
 From a time within a time we barely know
 I'll listen as you cry and weep
 It's only time before you're again asleep
 
 So quiet is this reigning night as you draw your last
 So dear is this life, and slipping painfully fast
 And embrace—a sleep so sweet you've never seen
 The person at peace you've never been
 Forget your present, your future, and past
 You are mine, and mine at last
