~~It Was Worth It~~

I'm scared and I'm afraid

I'm dead and it's all a lie

I'm alone and no one's there

Even though I hear their voices

No hands reach back to mine

I'm scared and I'm crying

I'm dead and I'm screaming

I'm alone and...you're there

I can hear your voice

And your hand is in mine

I'm scared and you're holding me

I'm dead and you're kissing me

I'm alone and never alone again

I can hold you close

I can feel alive with you

It was worth it, by the gods

All the screams and all the pain

It was worth it, I can't believe it

All the darkness and all the hell

It was truly worth it

I know I've suffered, but now I'm here

I know I've died, but here I'm alive

I know I've wept, but you dry my tears

I know I've lied, but you make me true

I know I've feared, but you keep me safe

Even though the journey's been long

Even though I regret so much

You make me proud to say I'm here

You make me proud to be who I am

You make me happy, to have come so far

Even though I can't rest yet

One day, soon, we can sleep

In each other's arms, finally at peace

We will rest, we will be safe

And all of our pain

Every inch of our paths

Every final drop of our tears

Every bit of ash

Every drop of rain

Every scar

It will be worth it

It's worth it now

To be able to say I've found you

Stumbling and scrambling

Desperate and diseased

I've finally come home

Home to where you wait

Video games and tea

Dark chocolate and red pepper

Warm hugs, and soft kisses

Thank you for being there

Thank you for letting me in

I'm proud of where we are

I'm proud of who you are

I'm proud of us

So broken, but yet so alive

Mercy, mercy, others would have died

Mercy, mercy--we need none

Stronger together, we are made

Invincible by our bond

Unending, infinity, eternity

Endlessly, I'll wait. Endlessly, I'll love

I'll let you in, I swear I will

Just keep me safe, and I'll give you the key

Let's live together, travel together....Let's go.
