sanctuary

Jack Strify

A rose, a smile, cool summer night
Seduced by wine and cheap perfume
A kiss with fangs
And it began
And so the lie became the truth
Who needs a heart?
She spits it out
She's safe inside
Inside

She won't cry
Not this time
She's safe inside
Her sanctuary
She needed you
To love her too
She's safe inside
Her sanctuary

Once upon another time
She sought protection but she found
That no one cared
So she broke down
And built a wall to keep 'em out
Behind her smile
She lives a lie
She's fled inside
Inside

She won't cry
Not this time
She's safe inside
Her sanctuary
She needed you
To love her too
She's safe inside
Her sanctuary
