Indigo Girls - Secure Yourself Lyrics

Complimentary "Secure Yourself" Ringtone

Secure yourself to heaven, hold on tight the night has come
Fasten up your earthly burdens, you have just begun

In the ink of the night I saw you bleed
Through the thunder I could hear you scream
Solid to the air I breathe, open-eyed and fast asleep
Falling softly as the rain, no footsteps ringing in your ears
Ragged down, worn to the skin, warrior raging have no fear

Secure yourself to heaven, hold on tight the night has come
Fasten up your earthly burdens, you have just begun

I'm kneeling down with broken prayers
Hearts and bones from days of youth
Restless with an angel's wing, I dig a grave to bury you
No feet to fall, you need no ground
Allowed to glide right through the sun
Released from circles guarded tight
Now we all are chosen ones

Secure yourself to heaven, hold on tight the night has come
Fasten up your earthly burdens, you have just begun
Secure yourself to heaven, hold on tight the night has come
Fasten up your earthly burdens, you have just begun

In the ink of the night I saw you bleed
Through the thunder I could hear you scream
Solid to the air I breathe, open-eyed and fast asleep
Falling softly as the rain, no footsteps ringing in your ears
Ragged down, worn to the skin, warrior raging have no fear

Secure yourself to heaven, hold on tight the night has come
Fasten up your earthly burdens, you have just begun

Secure yourself to heaven, hold on tight the night has come
(In the ink of the night I saw you bleed)
(Through the thunder I could hear you scream)
Fasten up your earthly burdens, you have just begun
(Solid to the air I breathe, open-eyed and fast asleep)
Secure yourself to heaven, hold on tight the night has come
(No feet to fall, you need no ground)
(Allowed to glide right through the sun)
Fasten up your earthly burdens, you have just begun
(Released from circles guarded tight)
(Now we all are chosen ones)
Now we all are chosen ones
(Secure yourself to heaven)
Allowed to glide right through the sun
(Hold on tight the night has come)
Released from circles guarded tight
(Fasten up your earthy burdens)
Now we all are chosen ones
