Not Such a Cruel World
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The tear on your face runs alone
I'll hold back the rain hold you close
You're shivering, fragile, so cold
I'll take you away from it all
Inside your heart's exploding
I'll hold it until the hurtings gone
You can lay your worries on me
Stop waiting for a let down, you have lay your head down
And sleep
Nothings gonna get you, you'll see
Stop waiting for a let down, you can lay your head down and breathe
It's not such a cruel world
Laying here with me, now you're safe
You know it's all that it takes
Slowly the fear drifts away
Just close your eyes and escape
Inside your heart's exploding
I'll hold it until the hurtings gone
You can lay your worries on me
Stop waiting for a let down, you have lay your head down
And sleep
Nothings gonna get you, you'll see
Stop waiting for a let down, you can lay your head down and breathe
It's not such a cruel world
Nothing stays the same
But nothing has to stay
Nothing has to change let your troubles fade away
You can lay your worries on me
Stop waiting for a let down, you have lay your head down
And sleep
Nothings gonna get you, you'll see
Stop waiting for a let down, you can lay your head down and breathe
It's not such a cruel world
