You saw my pain, washed out in the rain
Broken glass, saw blood running from my veins
But you saw no fault, no crack in my heart
And you knelt beside my hope torn apart
But the ghosts that we knew will flicker from view
and we will live the long life
So give me hope in the darkness
and I will see the light
Cause, oh, it gave me such a fright
but I will hold as long as you like
just promise me we'll be alright
So lead me back and turn south from that place
and close my eyes from my recent disgrace
cause you know my core and will share my all
and now children come and they'll hear me roar
So give me hope in the darkness
and I will see the light
Cause, oh, it gave me such a fright
but I will hold as long as you like
just promise me we'll be alright
Hold me still, bury my heart on the cold
So give me hope in the darkness
and I will see the light
Cause, oh, it gave me such a fright,
but I will hold as long as you like
just promise me we'll be alright
But the ghosts that we knew will flicker from view
and we will live the long life
Broken glass, saw blood running from my veins
But you saw no fault, no crack in my heart
And you knelt beside my hope torn apart
But the ghosts that we knew will flicker from view
and we will live the long life
So give me hope in the darkness
and I will see the light
Cause, oh, it gave me such a fright
but I will hold as long as you like
just promise me we'll be alright
So lead me back and turn south from that place
and close my eyes from my recent disgrace
cause you know my core and will share my all
and now children come and they'll hear me roar
So give me hope in the darkness
and I will see the light
Cause, oh, it gave me such a fright
but I will hold as long as you like
just promise me we'll be alright
Hold me still, bury my heart on the cold
So give me hope in the darkness
and I will see the light
Cause, oh, it gave me such a fright,
but I will hold as long as you like
just promise me we'll be alright
But the ghosts that we knew will flicker from view
and we will live the long life
