What I don't understand is I'm scared to be alone The rain drops on the sidewalk Remind me to call home And you got quiet in your old age I don't think that's so bad Because silence keeps me awake From the nightmares of my past And I know I'll always love you This simply will not pass And this beating in your chest is just enough And this beating in your chest is just enough And these hands They etched your name into evergreen Yearning for growth Running on hope Well I couldn't stand You hovered toward the ceiling Silhouettes holding my hand Could I be a better man? Falling like rain Falling like rain This simply will not pass And this beating in my chest is just enough And this beating in my chest is just enough
