Sleep still child, I’ll take the weight of the world for a while
Rest your head, I’ll return when the morning comes…to say
“I know you’re tired, I’ll give you strength”
“I know you are scared…don’t worry”
Please…let yesterday just fade away
And put something in its place
Because I cant make sense of this life and all its pleasures and its pains,
How your love brought me this far but some how left me along the way
To die here a little more each day
….so wake me up when there’s an ending…
Late at night my words take flight but hit the ceiling
And bounce around on these wooden floors until the morning comes
I brace for the day with whatever’s left inside me
I wake for the day with hopes of catching a glimpse of you
Please…show me something, something that I need
Please…show me anything
Because I cant make sense of this life and all its pleasures and its pains,
How your love brought me this far but some how left me along the way
To die here a little more each day
