Verse 1:
You make life so hard on yourself
It's like you hate everyone else
a silent cold stare, how do they not see your despair?
Come with me and leave your things
I will do what the others wouldn't dare.
Pre:
So hear me when I say...
Chorus:
I'll be there when your heart stops beating
I'll be there when your mind is pleading
I'll be there when the lights go out
Woah oh oh
I'll be there when your heart is breaking
I'll be there when your hands are shaking
I'll be there when your lungs stop breathing
Verse 2:
You cannot escape my grasp
my sweetly gentle lapse
Im wanting, needing to let go
Who am I today?
You make my smile glow
As you act a silent play
What are you going to say this week?
I need you, I love you?
Promise me you won't.
Whoa oh oh
Don't you tell me how to be
When I'm crying a broken plea.
I don't want you to be there for me
I just wanna be left alone!
You've worn through the love within these seams.
That mama so kindly sewed.
You've unbuttoned my wrath
Unearthed my anger
And now you must know
Oh how I enjoyed being alone.
Chorus 3:
Stay away from me
How did I fail to see the cold beneath your stare
And the love that would have been there
If you just would've accepted me
NO.....
Outro:
I will be here forever true
Who are you?
I am you.
You make life so hard on yourself
It's like you hate everyone else
a silent cold stare, how do they not see your despair?
Come with me and leave your things
I will do what the others wouldn't dare.
Pre:

Chorus:
I'll be there when your heart stops beating
I'll be there when your mind is pleading
I'll be there when the lights go out
Woah oh oh
I'll be there when your heart is breaking
I'll be there when your hands are shaking
I'll be there when your lungs stop breathing
