Is this an over-reaching arm Or is this compassion? Is this a handout undeserved Or a just reparation? And like a single domino That falls while the rest stay vertical Will you fear these empty fairytales Or will you believe them? Come in, all of the cold

Tapestries of black and gold they're crying Looking through the windows I am watching you You as you go by You count every word I say Seven verses to magnify Drop the feathers you will never fly Over again you might find a way Turn on a wave of fire

That's the way you come to me I'm head over heels And I'm always gonna be That's okay I love the way you come to me Sun breaks I can't wait Til I'll be on my way again I'm sick and tired of waiting With nothing to do Watching the rain through a crack

She was his rock and his best friend They'll be reunited in heaven 'Cause he's dying to see her again She was his reason for living Imagine her Standing there Young again Long brown hair As he crosses over

Don't let me go On my own I'm finally free Pull this plug, let me breath Give me whats left of my life You spend your days counting the hours you're awake And when night covers the sky you find yourself doing the same It's a burden you've been burying in

Well, based on your smile I'm betting all of this Might be over soon But your bound to win 'Cause if I'm betting against you I think I'd rather lose But this is all that I have Take what's left of this heart and use
