Beside You

When your tears are spent

On your last pretense

And your tired eyes refuse to close

And sleep in your defense

When it's in your spine

Like you've walked for miles

And the only thing you want is just to be still for a while

And if your heart wears thin

I will hold you up

And I will hide you

When it gets too much

I'll be right beside you

I'll be right beside you

When you're overwhelmed

And you've lost your breath

And the space between the things you know

Is blurring nonetheless

When you try to speak, but you make no sound

And the words you want are out of reach

But they've never been so loud

And if your heart wears thin

I will hold you up

And I will hide you

When it gets too much

I'll be right beside you

I'll be right beside you

I will sing

Nobody will break you

Trust in me, trust in me, don't pull away

Just trust in me, trust me

Cause I'm just trying to keep it together

Cause I could do worse and you could do better

When your tears are spent

On your last pretense

And your tired eyes refuse to close

And sleep in your defense

And if your heart wears thin

I will hold you up

And I will hide you

When it gets too much

I'll be right beside you

Nobody will break you

And if your heart wears thin

I will hold you up

And I will hide you

When it gets too much

I'll be right beside you

Nobody will break you
