Your heartbeat is pulsing at night in your chest
It's gold and it's glowing with all the life you have left
I received your words from hospitals where you felt alone
Your words like smoke, they made me sick but they kept me warm

	    		   
Run where you'll be safe
Through the garden gates
To the shelter of magnolias

			 				 
Your eyes are like sea glass, so weathered and worn
From all they've seen of adolescence torn
The lovers who have tainted you, they pulled you into the night
They touched your skin with velvet gloves and made you feel alive

	    		  
Run where you'll be safe
Through the garden gates
To the shelter of magnolias
There's not much time
The blush in the sky
begins to fade

	  		    
You are weathered and worn

Your petals soft and torn
          
The fading color
	  		    
You have bent your shoulders

To hold the weight of the world
        
You will surely shatter

(Solo)
  (x4)

	         
Run where you'll be safe
Through the garden gates
To the shelter of magnolias
There's not much time
The blush in the sky 
begins to fade
