[Verse 1]
This world asks for so much

Despite what you give it’s just never enough
Then you’re left cold tired and alone

Searching for something that’s already gone
You try not to be afraid

Bound down by all of these things that they say
And you feel like you’re all by yourself

But I’ll be right here when there’s nothing else

[Chorus]

Lay down
Rest here in peace in my arms now
Knowing you’re safe
From the storms and the rain
And from all of your pain
And I’ll be here when only the silence remains
Only the silence remains

[Verse 2]
Your fears they know that you’re scared

Wherever you go they seem to meet you there
And you face them all on your own

Never the weak always the strong
And you win most of the time

Never once claiming that victory’s mine
And you carry this burden alone

But this candle’s burned at both ends for so long

[Chorus]

Lay down
Rest here in peace in my arms now
Knowing you’re safe
From the storms and the rain
And from all of your pain
And I’ll be here when only the silence remains
