Setting Sun

Why must you leave Must you go away Can we not bask In another light of day What are you running from my dear Can we not stand and fight the Fear inside The fear inside Fight the fear inside Away Won’t you stay As the sun sets I hold on for the light You took the stars I sit alone in the night Why must this sun always fall down And leave me broken on the Hard cold ground The hard cold ground This same old broken ground Tonight This can’t be right When you came home You asked to meet up some night But I stayed home I’m so weary from this fight I tried to love you tried to stay strong But I’ve been dragged on Far too long I can’t hold on I can no longer be strong For you
