| 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 |
