My Whole Wide World In Your Hands


I loved your hands strong and worked

When I was in them nothing could do me harm

But within those hands as vulnerable as I could be


Not for a second did I think they’d crush me


I put my faith into your palm

Lay my timid heart down in the other one

I was certain they were safe with you never fearing


What you were gonna do


Oh but those hands I loved would be the end of me


The moment they were yours you started to squeeze

Instant agony had me on my knees

You walked away never said a thing

Hands in tight fists still wrecking me


Found my heart on the side of an empty road

Deformed and covered in dirt and stone

But my conviction you clasp quietly

Choke until you hear nothing

I did no wrong I was terrified so I clawed and I


Screamed trying to breathe


Your head ached from the noise

My nails grazed your arm

You regarded my state of fear as a call to war

Released your grip smile on your face

Opened your mouth swallowed the trust I gave

Now you keep me caged

Within your darkness

Barred by your silence

My cell your void

The only way out by key

Should you speak I

Will be set free
