Father, don't cry, it's not so bad here
I'm doing this all on my own (All on my own)
Everyone else keeps passing me by
I float through this place all alone

I know it doesn't feel like you'll recover
Suffering that never goes away
But I'm here with you, so carry me through
Use me as a light to guide your way

Revisiting this old familiar place
Just to see if you could find a trace
It's time to say goodbye
At least you have to try for me, for me

Waiting, wasting away without you here
But I'll come around, just give me a reason
Drifting, sinking, searching for a way
To reach out and pull you close

I know it doesn't feel like you'll recover
Suffering that never goes away
But I'm here with you, so carry me through
Use me as a light to guide your way

I know it doesn't feel like you'll recover
Suffering that never goes away
But I'm here with you, so carry me through
Use me as a light to guide your way

Carry me and I can be the light to guide your way

Don't you cry now, go to sleep
Dry your eyes, don't wait for me
Don't you cry now, go to sleep
Dry your eyes, don't wait for me

Don't you cry now, go to sleep
Dry your eyes, don't wait for me
Don't you cry now, go to sleep
Dry your eyes, don't wait (Don't wait for me)

Don't you cry now, go to sleep
Dry your eyes, don't wait for me (Don't wait for me)
Don't you cry now, go to sleep (Don't wait for me)
Dry your eyes, don't wait for me

I know it doesn't feel like you'll recover
Suffering that never goes away
But I'm here with you, so carry me through
Use me as a light to guide your way

I know it doesn't feel like you'll recover
Suffering that never goes away
But I'm here with you, so carry me through
And use me as a light to guide your way
