Throw A Blanket Over The Sun Lyrics - Shannon Wright

He throws a blanket over the sun 

He closes out everyone 

While she prays, 

"Don't let him take me. There must be a better way." 

You will come to me in a dream 

Rifled of my sorrow or just to ease my pain 

And let it slay me or let me suffocate 

Oh, why must you leave 

This lamb you wound remains 

if only to see your face 

I pray on my knees 

Oh, why must you leave 

This lamb you wound remains 

if only to see your face 

I've taken everything 

Even the birds could not 

take the burden of her body's plate 

No wires held in place 

Her body just could never mend 

And let it take me 

Oh, come take me instead 

No love is here 

No love is here 

No love is here 

No love is here 

No love is here 

No love is here 

No love is here 

No love is here 

Oh, why must you leave? 

This lamb you wound remains 

if only to see your face 

I pray on my knees 

If only to see your face 

This lamb you wound remains 

I pray on my knees 

You've taken everything
