Kids, they watch everything you do Kids, they grow up to be like you When your daddy left you standing there Kid, then you learned to disappear You built a wall between you and the world You thought it could protect you from the hurt If you're lonely, come lay down with me If you're tired, baby, we can just go to sleep You don't have to stand alone in your debris Spark, a memory burning in your mind Birthmark, parents fighting all the time You drown, turning up the radio Shot down, looking for someone to hold you When you were fifteen, you ran from home Don't you think it's time to let your childhood go If you're lonely, come lay down with me If you're tired, baby, we can just go to sleep You don't have to stand alone in your debris If you're thirsty, you can drink from my cup If you get scared, you know I'll back you up You don't have to stand alone in your debris Lay down your guns and set your spirit free And know that you are loved and love is all you need You built a wall between you and the world Don't you think it's time to let your childhood go If you're lonely, come lay down with me If you're tired, baby, we can just go to sleep You don't have to stand alone in your debris If you're thirsty, you can drink from my cup If you get scared, you know I'll back you up You don't have to stand alone in your debris
