Weep For Me

When you get so tired of screaming In the darkness of your mind When the vultures that surround us Numb our thoughts and leave us blind When there's no hope in the distance No light upon the shore I'll remember what love feels like When you held my hand in yours You weep for me when I cry You wait patient by the shore You give me all the time I need When I need a little more You're there walking on the water When I'm drowning in my tears Now I'm tired of this delusion You will chase away my fears So I guess I'll keep on screaming In the darkness of my mind For the vultures that surrounded me They too now are blind There's a light there in the distance A beacon on the shore I remember what love feels like Now you hold my hand in yours I will weep for you when you cry I'll wait patient on the shore Give you all the time you need If you need a little more I'll walk with you on the water Stop you drowning in your tears We will live in loves illusion I will chase away your fears
