Sanctuary
Kindofkind Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Stay with me for a while
Let's get lost in the wild
Even on our darkest days
I don't care what that may say
Through the forest, through the trees
I don't care where things may lead
I just gotta let you know
That this ain't all for show
And I'm not letting go
Stay with me for a while
Let's get lost in the wild
I've been waiting way too long and
I've been singing the same song
I've been waiting way too long and
I don't know what I did wrong
I've been waiting way too long and
I've been singing the same song
I've been waiting way too long and
I don't know what I did wrong
When life starts getting scary
You're my sanctuary
I just gotta let you know
That this ain't all for show
And I'm not letting go
Stay with me for a while
Let's get lost in the wild




Stay with me for a while
Let's get lost in the wild
