Semper Fi Lyrics

Your absence has not taught me to be alone
It merely has shown that when together
We cast a single shadow on the wall
Love is composed of a single soul inhabiting two bodies
My heart leaps up into the sky when you shed your rainbow colours so bright

You are the faithful sun my world revolves around
You are the guard who watches when I go to sleep
You are the faithful sun that never sets a day
You keep me warm even when I am far away

Out of the dark depths comes the promise of light
Out of the violence comes the promise of future
You are the faithful sun my world revolves around

In my nightmares I'll fight lurking demons to keep you safe
I'll ride dragons across the ancient seas just to see your face
I'll shield you from the parasites of this world to keep your faith

The love you give keeps me sworn to you for eternity
If my fucking sun sets I'll tear my lungs to roar til the earth shakes
This world's so cold, oceans will freeze, colours will fade from the rainbows
Cold and dark, would be this world without you
Black and white, would be this rainbow without you
