My Last Breath
Hold on to me love
Someone was holding her. Shadow.

you know i can't stay long
She was dying and she knew it

all i wanted to say was i love you and I’m not afraid
She was dying, dying so young

can you hear me?
Her voice was barely a mumble

can you feel me in your arms?
She felt light and giddy, was she there?

holding my last breath
She breathed in

safe inside myself
Nowhere was safe

are all my thoughts of you
She thought of Shadow, and his pain, what he had to go though

sweet raptured life it ends here tonight
If only tonight could last forever

I’ll miss the winter
She’ll miss a lot of things

a world of fragile things
She knew Shadow was one of them

look for me in the white forest
Whenever he need her

hiding in a hollow tree (come find me)
She needed him

i know you hear me
Pain washed over her

i can taste it in your tears
His salty tears dripped into her mouth

holding my last breath
Keeping it for as long as she could

safe inside myself
She was safe with Shadow

are all my thoughts of you
Of how they had first met, and she had freed him

sweet raptured life it ends here tonight
In this deserted old warehouse, she had re-lived and now she was gonna die here  

closing your eyes to disappear
He didn’t want this to happen

you pray your dreams will leave you here
She was too young

but still you wake and know the truth
But he couldn’t save her

no one's there
She was fading away

say goodnight
For the last time

don't be afraid
Because there’s nothing to be afraid of

calling me calling me as you fade to black
She was nearly gone

say goodnight
My darling

holding my last breathe
I make this last as long as I can

don't be afraid
There’s nothing to be afraid of  

safe inside myself
She was going

calling me
She could hear him say her name

are all my thoughts of you
The Project Shadow, her Shadow

calling me as you fade to black
She was tired and at bliss

sweet raptured life it ends here tonight
She’ll be gone soon

holding my last breath
For you

safe inside myself
My love

are all my thoughts or you
My Shadow

Sweet raptured life it ends here tonight.
I have to go.
