lyrics

spare me my solitude,
my doubts and my sorrows.
they’re in the air, they’re on the waters,
they’re in the world down below.

sometimes i still hear
the calling of the unsolved fear.
it’s dancing under the starlight,
burning bright when you are near.
and the light flickered behind your eyes,
they burn like fire, they are cold as the night.

and i will fall, fall, when i stop running.
i will fall. fall, the silence is closing in…

‘cause i chose to lean on you
and abandoned everything i knew.
it will surely be the death of me,
when death has taken you but forsaken me.

strange how truth makes you a liar,
defeat makes you the saviour.
strange how war makes you a believer,
and love makes you a martyr.

there’s a miracle at the end of every story,
and on the third day…

and we will rise, we will rise, when the rain stops falling
we will rise, rise, when the light is breaking in.
we will rise…

and I gave you all I had
save me from this ghost I am
