I Don'T Want To Watch You Fall Away
Take off the mask sweetheart
I know who you are
Give me the pills and put the bottle down
Lean on me just for a little while
Listen to my heart beat
And know that I'm alive for you
You're a little distant love
Please don't walk away from me
I know this feels hopeless, but -
Promise me you won't lose faith dear
I hear those screams you think are silent
Take down the wall and let me in
I see your hands are shaking
I understand that you're scared
But just rest your head on my shoulder baby - and I'll chase away those fears
If you'd just let me hold you
I wouldn't have to tell you that everything's going to be alright
You'd feel it
If you'd just look into my eyes
You'd see it
Take off the mask sweetheart
I know who you are
I don't want to watch you fall away from me
Please give me the pills and put the bottle down...
