Box Around The Sun Lyrics - Our Own House - Misterwives

I was just barely holding on 

Trying to keep up 

I saw no signs of anyone 

Box built around the Sun 

I thought to sleep the day away 

But trees were as dark as the night's weight 

How did you hear the drop of my tear 

You chase all the fear 

You were there for the waking 

My soul was sleeping 

You woke me, shaking every piece of me 

You took me under 

Eyes wide to you with wonder 

Built me a heartstrong 

Carry me on 

We find light down any road we take 

Feet never seem to break 

Unable to feel unstable 

And you carry me all the way 

I take comfort in your eyes 

Keep me feeling safe all the days 

Oh whoa, oh whoa 

Your presence gives me joy alone 

Never do I face the world alone 

You were there for the waking 

My soul was sleeping 

You woke me, shaking every piece of me 

You took me under 

Eyes wide to you with wonder 

Built me a heartstrong 

Carry me 

On and on and on 

On and on and on 

On and on and on 

On and on and on and on and on 

And on and on 

On and on and on 

On and on and on 

On and on and on 

Put away the days 

When home was what I chased 

When love had no space to live 

This world we built 

Is long past filled 

My hands cannot hold on to a shield 

My hands cannot hold on to a shield, shield 

Hands cannot hold on to a shield, shield 

Opened up what I had sealed, sealed 

Opened up what I had sealed, sealed 

You were there for the waking 

My soul was sleeping 

You woke me, shaking every piece of me 

You took me under 

Eyes wide to you with wonder 

Built me a heartstrong 

Carry me 

On and on and on 

On and on and on 

On and on and on 

On and on and on and on and on 

And on and on 

On and on and on 

On and on and on 

On and on and on
