It's not a game As the clock keeps dragging by Still there are rules to it A few simple rules to it Keeping at a distance Is a way that we can try Try to find some peace in it Gotta find some peace in this There's not some monster That is lurking round outside Cause if there was I could Cause if there was I would You're needing answers That I just cannot provide But if I could I would Yea if I could I would Cause I can hear you waking in the night I know you're wondering how long we'll hide Can't tell you why it seems So long at times But I'll do what it takes Just so you know you're alright There's no number here It gets hard to prescribe But I'll hold the fear from ya And hold that fear for ya There will be a time When all of this subsides I hope it's soon for ya Hope it comes real soon to us Cause I can hear you waking in the night I know you're wondering how long we'll hide Can't tell you why it seems So long at times But I'll do what it takes Just so you know you're alright Can't tell you why it seems So long at times But I'll do what it takes Just so you know you're alright Can't tell you how long it'll be 'Till the end of this night But I'll do what it takes Just so you know you're alright Yea I'll do what it takes Just so you know you're alright
