Rest

When everything you are
Just seems to fall apart
And you're alone in the dark
Sorrow, like endless rain
No longer hides the pain
And now you've drifted too far
Come down from the ledge
Of your own broken heart
Run here to my open arms
Where you can fall apart!
I'll be your light in dark!
I'll be right where you are!
I'll hold you close through the pain!
I'll calm the raging tide!
I'll be right by your side!
I'll shelter you from the rain!
Put your head on my shoulder!
Put your head on my shoulder
And rest
No more tears left to cry
Wishing that you could die
And make this hurt go away!
This endless raging storm
Has left your heart so torn
You simply can't see a way!
I'll be your light in dark!
I'll be right where you are!
I'll hold you close through the pain!
I'll calm the raging tide!
I'll be right by your side!
I'll shelter you from the rain!
Put your head on my shoulder!
Put your head on my shoulder
And rest
