You're Mine

You're still working out the penance
But was it ever really yours to pay?
Chip on your shoulder about your parents
They tried their best to keep you safe
Well, take my hand if you want it
It's plain to me you're gonna drown
Your secrets kept your own sentence handed down
You can look in my eyes and try to hide but you're mine

Hide all your money under the mattress
Keep all your angst beneath your breath
The fuse is lit and there is no way out
You've fantasized about your end
Well, take my hand if you want it
Even if you think you're gonna explode
Your secrets kept your own sentence handed down
You can look in my eyes and try to laugh but you're mine

When you're falling apart
And you need it inside
Just remember one thing baby
You're mine, mine
Well, take my hand, I won't let go
It's plain to me you're gonna drown
The promise kept in the face of your brokenness
You can look in my eyes and see this time that you're mine
