Hold my hand, never let it go
Mommy dearest, I know I know
You won't, but I do fear this so
This nightmare long, it brings me woe

To be curled up again, warm and safe
Where nothing can touch me but your embrace
Where this world does not affect me in ways
That make me feel pain and disgrace

Lift me up the way you do
Tell me that I can do it too
Help me believe my heart is true
And someday I'll do the same for you
