You leave the light on when you sleep, cause you're dreams are dark and hard to keep Another night will soon be gone, the light of day will make you strong But that wont lessen any pain, you wear it well, but its such a heavy chain Right now you hurt too much, you cant even stand a tender touch I know you probably like to be alone But if i can help you through, these things that trouble you And make them easier to bare, ill be there Now i wont bother to pretend, that ive walked the miles to where you've been And once i caught you by surprise, and saw the hard road in your eyes And the memories you drag around, its gettin' time for you to lay your burdens down Repeat
