Shadows in the darkness
Pain of a broken soul
Lost inside forever
Don't know which way to go
I should have done it differently
It shouldn't be this way
I made a mistake
You had to pay
I thought it would work out
We'd be together still
We had the time
My mistake killed
Let me see you once again
Let me see your heart
Lie beside me soft in sleep
In my dreams we'll never part
You saved my life
My heart and soul
Who will save me now
Without you to hold
Break my heart
Tear me to pieces
I've lost my best friend
What am I left with

I close my eyes
I see your face
I know your name
I feel the burn in me
I hear you call
You call for me
What do I know
Who do you see
I feel the burn in me
Little by little
The flame grows
Little by little
The burn makes me
A piece at a time
I fall into you
A part of my life
Belongs to you
I close my eyes
Open my heart
Your face in my mind
Your name on my tongue
I taste you
I give me
What can I do
Set me free
Set me free
I need to fly
Lift my wings
Feel the breeze
Take me up
Show me the moon
From the other side
Set me free

You saved my life
You gave me hope
You gave me strength
You made me cope
When I fell down
You made me stand
When I gave up
You made me try again
When I cried
You took my tears
When I was afraid
You eased my fears
When I thought
I was alone
You made me see
You were my home
When I was lost
You were my guide
When I was bowed
You were my pride
When I was weak
You were my strength
When I was lonely
You were my friend
When I was angry
You were my calm
When I as hurt
You were my balm
When I failed
You never judged
You never wavered
Or held a grudge
You never left me
When I got mad
You never laughed
When I was sad
You slept beside me
Every night
You forgave me
Our every fight
I told you I love you
You loved me too
You trusted I'd protect you
I trusted it too
Together just us
For so many years
What am I without you
But night full of tears
You saved me before
I should have saved you
Now I'm alone with my pain
And I don't know what to do
Can't stop crying, can't stop the hurt
Can't let the guilt go
Forever I'll remember
I should have brought you home

I cannot go into your darkness
I know I would not survive
I would never find my way back
You would leave me with no where to hide
I cannot carry your pain
I live with too much of my own
I am not strong enough to hold you
When you tell me you just don't want to go on
Your anger you wear like a banner
Your hate like a weapon in hand
You weld both with deadly precision
And care not who you have damned
I cannot hold you together
When you choose to fall apart
I cannot make it all better
When you want to tear it apart
Life and anger and pain and darkness
Hate and blame and fear
The bitterness you hold on to
The past that is always there
I cannot go into your darkness
The place you choose to dwell
I need too much what I fought for
The light inside of myself
I cannot carry your pain
When my own weighs more than my heart
I need to let go of the burden
Leave it behind in the past
Your darkness, your pain and your fury
Your suitcase of shadows and loss
Too full for you to carry
How much longer and at what cost
