All I Need Is You

To escape, to die

To suffer, to fly

All I need is You

Merciful is You Who takes my pains

Far away

So I know it is true

All I really need is You

 

But there are some things in this world

That are just meant to be

When I can’t go any further

When I’m caged and can’t see

 

Yet I know love revives me

The love from You

I can withstand anything

With the love from You

 

Inevitable waves

Crashing, falling

Shearing and tearing

Grasping and crying

 

My armor cracks, breaks, and shatters

My sword is dented

I have to still trek all the way to Saturn

And all the way to You

 

I know love revives me

The love from You

I can withstand anything

With the love from You

 

I cannot dare to question

If I can do anything without You

Because I’m meaningless all by myself

That, I swear, is true

 

To escape, to die

To suffer, to die

All I need is You

But I know that I will wither

I will fall

I am weak and helpless

So please don’t leave me behind

 

I know love revives me

The love from You

I can withstand anything

With the love from You
