Lay it on
Now that I can see
Couldn't barely talk
Without the will to breathe
Didn't hear the strength within your words
And what they mean
You were watchin' over me
You can hear the call
When trouble's on the way
Who said the beast was gone?
He was only just away
Tryin' to find the peace and always knowin'
I was never really free
You were watchin' over me
With the will to look away
When I was fallin' down
Crawlin' in the dirt?
Is it fair enough to say
That I needed you through the crazy pain
Of livin' here with all this hurt and what I feel?
All I touch and how I steal?
The fantasy was far too real
Oh, I let it slip away
Didn't hear the strength within your words
And what they mean
You were watchin' over me
