Dear Dakota

This Is Not A Threat

Dear Dakota


I'm wrapped up in what we have become
Something I never expected 
Our ties have grown so incredibly strong 
Now everyone's trying to break it

Fall into me 
I'll protect you from them 
But I'll never turn away 

Cause I can't back down 
No, no not now, baby 
I'm in way to deep
When the seas drain, 
On desert plains, 
That will be 
When I let you go
And we both know 
The stars won't ever cease to shine,
Cause when they do 
They can take away what's mine, you're mine.

I've fallen short one too many times 
Still you should all practice forgiveness
My heart is hers, and she will help direct it in line
Let me redeem myself one last time 

I'll hold you in secrecy 
And if they catch us 
They'll try to take me away

Cause I can't back down 
No, no not now, baby 
I'm in way to deep
When the seas drain, 
On desert plains, 
That will be 
When I let you go
And we both know 
The stars won't ever cease to shine,
Cause when they do 
They can take away what's mine, you're mine.

And I've done some things in my past
Those things are so long gone 
It just takes one mistake 
Forever they'll hold on

So what 
I guess you're just perfect 
And I 
will never be as good as you 
Take me away and I swear
You'll reap the pain you've put me through

When the seas drain, 
On desert plains,

And we both know

Cause when they do
