This world asks for so much
|
Despite what you give it's just never enough
|
Then you're left cold tired and alone
|
Searching for something that's already gone
|
You try not to be afraid
|
Bound down by all of these things that they say
|
And you feel like you're all by yourself
|
But I'll be right here when there's nothing else
|
|
Lay down
|
Rest here in peace in my arms now
|
Knowing you're safe
|
From the storms and the rain
|
And from all of your pain
|
And I'll be here when only the silence remains
|
Only the silence remains
|
|
Your fears they know that you're scared
|
Wherever you go they seem to meet you there
|
And you face them all on your own
|
Never the weak always the strong
|
And you win most of the time
|
Never once claiming that victory's mine
|
And you carry this burden alone
|
But this candle's burned at both ends for so long
|
|
Lay down
|
Rest here in peace in my arms now
|
Knowing you're safe
|
From the storms and the rain
|
And from all of your pain
|
And I'll be here when only the silence remains
|
|
Lay down
|
Lay down
|
Lay down
|
|
Rest here in peace in my arms now
|
Knowing you're safe
|
From the storms and the rain
|
And from all of your pain
|
And I'll be here when only the silence remains
