When you cry yourself to sleep
I lay awake knowing every ache
The deep breaths and sobs
Loneliness no mortal could take

Monsters haunt your dreams
I fight them off nightly
Protecting you from the brunt
Worth it when I see you smiling

Park benches at night
My favorite place to find you
A slight chill and our bodies close
In this we learn what's true

I'll tell the truth to you
From now until the end
