I've been fighting for a quiet mind
Searching for a little space to hide
A way out, slow down
Press pause maybe then rewind
I've been turning down every road
And learning it's the wrong way to go
I need an exit from the frantic
A detour that brings me home
Arms around me through the night
Shield and shelter in the fight
You've been all around calling out right there
Giving me songs of consolation
Making this work in the hurt, so steady and strong
It's an invitation tonight, give me a quiet mind
I've been slipping through the sands of time
Fear creeping up from behind
In all of the tragic in this static
Stillness is hard to find
I've been trying to catch my breath
I've been living myself to death
Chasing anything and everything
Until there's nothing left
Arms around me through the night
Shield and shelter in the fight
You've been all around calling out right there
Giving me songs of consolation
Making this work in the hurt, so steady and strong
It's an invitation tonight, give me a quiet mind
Tonight, give me a quiet mind, tonight
Arms around me through the night
Shield and shelter in the fight
You've been all around calling out right there
Giving me songs of consolation
Making this work in the hurt, so steady and strong
It's an invitation tonight, give me a quiet mind
I've been searching for an anchored soul
I've been waiting for a hope to hold
Would you lift me, could you give me
The peace to be still and know
Tonight, tonight
Tonight, tonight
