FOREVER SHALL THAT BE

you once thought arms were weaponry

controlling you with force

your blood would boil and you recoiled

adrift in your remorse

alarm, nor harm is in my arms

just safe security

in here, my dear, there is no fear

forever shall that be

you once thought hell was your address

the flames would lick your face

and in that heat you felt defeat

imprisoned in that place

but hell won't dwell inside our shell

just rapture, heavenly

its warm and storms will never swarm

forever shall that be

you once thought you lived in a grave

so smothered 'neath the earth

with no respect, just harsh neglect

and stripped of all your worth

with lilt, we've built a seamless quilt

to cover you and me

disgrace, distaste have been erased

forever shall that be
