Carry this, I can't hold the hand that you gave me
Shattered like glass and I don't know how this story got twisted around
Beautiful, when you were pure and fragile
Outgrew your skin just as soon as you had learned what this world is about

Dim the light, ready or not
Walk the mile, ready or not
Let the waves of cold lives crash upon the sunshine

In the end, we can't fight this battle forever
One of us wins while the other mourns the soul that he had to lay down

Dim the light, ready or not
Walk the mile, ready or not
Let the waves of cold lives crash upon the sunshine

Helpless in the way I feel when you are gone
Helpless in the way I feel when you are gone

Dim the light, ready or not
Walk the mile, ready or not
Let the waves of cold lives crash upon the sunshine

Dim the light, ready or not
Walk the mile, ready or not
Let the waves of cold lives crash upon the sunshine
