The years have created a ring round you
A tidal wave of what didn’t go right
If you’re tired from the world’s weight
Let your soul rest a while with mine
We hold hands into the abyss of filth
And I protect you with my heart
Your being has succumbed to the struggle
And I’m exhausted from this path
Our roads will forever be intertwined
And I will never let you slip
But my love, let’s sit down a while
I think I’m starting to lose my grip
The nights I have been angry with God
Our peace nestled under street lamps
This roller-coaster is built on trust
But all I do is prepare for when we can’t
I've failed you so many times
But you’ve hurt me for more
It's time to swim away, please let me drown
For my demons are waiting on the shore
