You can't carry the worries of the world And have a shoulder left to cry on So many days left to the hands of chance With nothing to rely on So crawl with me out of the dark Let it be us the light shines on For nothing is promised or guaranteed But I'll be the post that you can lean on I don't want to live forever But I don't want to die tonight Let's walk through this world together Let it know we're alive I've spent a lifetime living like a fool When I should have known better I guess you'll never know who you are Until who you were is gone forever So walk with me out into the light Let it be us who learn to live on For nothing is promised or guaranteed But I'll be the shoulder you can cry on Let me be your shoulder to cry on
