Secure Yourself Lyrics - Indigo Girls - Indigo Girls

Secure yourself to heaven hold on tight the night has come 

Fasten up your earthly burdens, you have just begun 

In the ink of the night I saw you bleed, through the thunder I could hear you scream 

Solid to the air I breathe, open-eyed and fast asleep 

Falling softly as the rain, no footsteps ringing in your ear 

Ragged down worn to the skin, warrior raging have no fear 

Secure yourself to heaven hold on tight the night has come 

Fasten up your earthly burdens, you have just begun 

I'm kneeling down with broken prayers hearts and bones from days of youth 

Restless with an angel's wing I dig a grave to bury you 

No feet to fall you need no ground, allowed to glide right through the sun 

Released from circles guarded tight, now we all are chosen ones
