[Verse 1]

All the stories my father told,

They spoke of your golden heart.

Now the air in the room is cold,

As your memories fall apart.



[Pre-Chorus]

You fear the silence,

So I keep the words coming.

You only remember that

Once all the clocks stop running,

We might expect it

But my heart's still filled with dread.

And words I never said,

Words I never said.



[Chorus]

Give me strength to see you weak,

'Cause I can't bear to let you leave.

I know you're tired, but please don't sleep,

'Cause I can't bear to let you leave.



[Verse 2]

You've been claimed by your suffering,

Sinking deeper in your pain.

If you made a recovery,

Could you ever be the same?



[Pre-Chorus]

You fear the silence,

So I keep the words coming.

You only remember that

Once all the clocks stop running,

We might expect it

But my heart's still filled with dread.

And words I never said,

Words I never said.



[Chorus]

Give me strength to see you weak,

'Cause I can't bear to let you leave.

I know you're tired, but please don't sleep,

'Cause I can't bear to let you leave.



[Hook]

I tower over your hospital bed,

Like you used to with me.

I tower over your hospital bed,

Like you used to...



[Bridge]

Strength to see you weak,

'Cause I can't bear to let you leave.



[Outro]

Give me strength to see you weak,

'Cause I can't bear to let you leave.

I know you're tired, but please don't sleep,

'Cause I can't bear to let you, bear to let you leave.
