My feet plow on from light to dawn My empty belly and my body aches ain't hard to take Next to the weight I carry in my chest, a pound of flesh Could never tip the scale that I've made I should have stayed, but I was never wise I hear your voices in the wind that cuts the night And I pray to whatever is listening things will be alright ♪ Oh, my boy, you're alive Your heart's still beating So, don't you die, don't you mind We all drift sometimes I can still hear your feet as you ran from the house Knowing you won't be back doesn't mean that I will stop waiting You told me then, "Hold me down, hold me up to the fire But don't you dare hold me back" Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh I see your faces in the clouds that scar the night (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh) Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh And I pray to whoever is listening things will be alright (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh) And today, I wake up feeling easy And find I'm on the more familiar roads I got a darkness wrapped inside me, but now it ain't so hard to let it go So keep your candle burning in the window, I'm almost home Mhm
