Lyrics

Walking beside you, holding your hand
You voice all your thoughts, your manic desire to end
To kill off the you that's pretend
By crossing the border to buy your own gun
You aim to convince me this is only way through
I'm here to listen to you
I'm here, I love you and that's all I know
I won't try to fix you, push or persuade you, or change the way you feel
I'll be your refuge, a place you can go
You've suffered for so long, let me hold you, show you something real
Caught in the wind of your merciless fear
I'm spun around, turning my heart to the pain
Shaken by how we're the same
I see the madness that rushes on through
And all my old wounds are mirrored in you
We both want the freedom to lay down the armor we bear
I'm here, I love you and that's all I know
I won't try to fix you, push or persuade you, or change the way you feel
I'll be your refuge, a place you can go
You've suffered for so long, let me hold you, show you something real
I feel your heart beating under your skin
The quiver of life gently caressing my hand
