The pain that grips you, the fear that binds you
Releases life in me
In our mutual shame we hide our eyes
To blind them from the truth that finds a way from who we are


Can't wash it all away
Can't wish it all away
Can't cry it all away
Can't scratch it all away

Lying beside you listening to you breathe
The light that flows inside of you, burns inside of me
Hold and speak to me of love without a sound
Tell me you will live through this and
I will die for you
Cast me not away, say you'll be with me
For I know I cannot bear it all alone

Can't fight it all away
Can't hope it all away
Can't scream it all away
It just won't fade away

I try so hard
