Now I think I understand

How this world can overcome a man

Like a friend we saw it through

In the end I gave my life for you



Gave you all I had to give

Found a place for me to rest my head

While I may be hard to find

Heard there's peace just on the other side



Not that I could

Or that I would

Let it burn

Under my skin

Let it burn



Left this life to set me free

Took a piece of you inside of me

All this hurt can finally fade

Promise me you’ll never feel afraid



Not that I could

Or that I would

Let it burn

Under my skin

Let it burn



I hope it's worth it

What's left behind me, yeah

I know you'll find your own way

When I'm not with you

So tell everybody

The ones who walk beside me, yeah

I hope you'll find your own way 

When I'm not with you tonight



I hope it's worth it

What's left behind me, yeah

I know you'll find your own way

When I'm not with you

So tell everybody

The ones who walk beside me, yeah

I know you'll find your own way 

When I'm not with you tonight
