A sanctuary, slowly I am sinking in I found a fossil in the sand While I was learning about bending And leaning in the southern wind It's not that I have never walked these grounds before But lately I have breathed in air that filled me more Than I could fathom It taught me how to love I Promise I promise I'll make the sacrifice I Promise I promise I'll make the sacrifice But don't leave me here with empty hands They're waiting for me back at home I never felt so strong before and never was so scared Scared of losing what I have I promise I gave up part of who I was But I don't really care Just don't leave me unaware I Promise I promise I'll make the sacrifice I have fallen I promise I'll make the sacrifice But don't leave me here with empty hands But don't leave me here with empty hands But don't leave me here with empty hands
