Lay it on
Now that I can see
Couldn't bear to talk
Without the will to breathe
Didn't hear the strength
Within your words
And what they mean
You were watching over me
You can hear the call
When trouble's on the way
Who said the beast was gone
He was only just away
Trying to find peace
In always knowing
I was never really free
You were watching over me
With the will to look to away
When I was falling down
Crawling in the dirt
Is it fair enough to say
That I needed you through the crazy pain
Of living here with all this hurt
And what I feel
All I touch and how I steal
The fantasy was far too real
Oh, and I let it slip away
Didn't hear the strength
Within your words
And what they mean
You were watching over me
