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…
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…
