In the light of day
I keep the thoughts at bay.

In the darkness of night
they gnaw away.

You hold the key to my fright,
Is it better to give you flight
to spare the fight.

Can I love you enough
to do what is so tough

Can you feel my pain
does it wash over you like rain

The tears,
they stream down my face
I hide my agony
and just hold on for the light of day.

This is too hard
the pain is too deep
too real
can I survive this too

I'm falling
will you be there calling
to me
beckoning me to your arms
of safe haven.
