You cry yourself to sleep while you bury Your emotions inside
And dug yourself too deep and a part of you is starting to die
You called out from under the fallout but none of the soldiers could hear a sound
Thinking maybe 'someone will save me' but all of the life boats keep letting you drown

So you tried to save yourself
But they rescued somebody else
Hold tight it'll be alright
Reach for the light at the edge of the dark

Their words won't break your bones but they'll drive your spirit into the ground
They took their sticks and stones, torch and tearing everything down
No one turned up so you were burned up, stuck in the fire you couldn't put out
Screaming "save me, send down some rain please" hoping heavens could hear you shout

Be not afraid
Hope is alive
