Sanctuary Lyrics by Shelby Merry

Revelations - EP

2019

[Verse 1]
Your name will never leave my lips with intention
You lost the right to live here anymore
I'll walk without a hitch within my step
Not a single day more that I will mourn
I speak of better days not fondly
Because I know they're all ahead of me
[Verse 2]
Sending up a flare in a sky I don't see
I'm far away from your shooting sight
I left a land barren and decayed
I don't know where I'll go
But I'll go tonight
[Chorus]
A sanctuary
Give me sanctuary
Lay your burdens on me
Lay your burdens on me
A sanctuary
[Verse 3]
I'm okay to leave without an answer
Only curses sway and leave your mouth
Dancing around as they echo
I fill my mind with good until I drown them out
[Chorus]
A sanctuary
Give me sanctuary
Lay your burdens on me
Lay your burdens on me
A sanctuary
[Bridge]
Lay your burdens on me
Lay your burdens on me
Lay your burdens down
All down
Lay your burdens on me
Lay your burdens on me
Lay your burdens on me
Lay your burdens down
All down
Lay your burdens on me
[Outro]
Sanctuary
Sanctuary
Sanctuary
Oh, oh, oh
