[Verse 1]
Blood on my sleeve from where my heart used to be
I've learned to keep it out of reach
'Cause I've let it flee with a few too many thieves
Always returns to me with a missing piece
But then you came along like high tide at dawn and
You washed me clean
And I must admit this feeling is bliss and
Darling I can hardly breathe

[Chorus]
We're standing hand in hand
In the middle of a lion's den
Bracing for attack at any moment
Wounds heal but love is ruthless and
All that I can bring myself to do
Is pray we make it out alive
By the morning

[Verse 2]
When it comes down to us
This strength for what we lack in luck
Yeah, you've got your scars and hell, I've got mine
Until I saw your face, didn't know what it meant to feel safe
I won't let you go, I know you're my only light
[Chorus]
We're standing hand in hand
In the middle of a lion's den
Bracing for attack at any moment
Wounds heal but love is ruthless and
All that I can bring myself to do
Is pray we make it out alive
By the morning
By the morning

[Bridge]
Lover, kiss me between the thunder and lightning
However this ends tonight, at least we'll go down fighting

[Chorus]
We're standing hand in hand
In the middle of a lion's den
Bracing for attack at any moment
Wounds heal but love is ruthless and
All that I can bring myself to do
Is pray we make it out alive
Oh, I pray you will stay by my side
'Til the morning
'Til the morning
'Til the morning
'Til the morning
