I lie awake
To still my mind from dreaming
To be haunted by your face
With closing eyes
There's nothing to be said
To stop you leaving
But a part of me knows
This is not goodbye
Counting down the days
A future I can't see
Just a photograph
To be holding on belief
The fire grows in me
I'm burning through the rain
With that fire I have left
I'll face the pain
I take in this moment
That we share inside
The weight taking over
When you say goodbye
A chip on my shoulder
In this ending night
Will there be much left?
Can there be much left
When you get home?
To wish away the pain
Is never living
When you dream your life away
Just waiting for the day
The emptiness inside
Is never ending
Every sacrifice you make
Just before we start to break
Fire grows in me
I'm burning through the rain
So I'll count another day
Until I see your face again
I take in this moment
That we share inside
The weight taking over
When you say goodbye
A chip on my shoulder
In this ending night
Will there be much left?
Can there be much left
When you get home?
So don't you think
That you're alone
The ties that bind
Will guide you home
When the days grow long
Keep holding on
These ties that bind
Will guide you back home
I take in this moment
That we share inside
The weight taking over
When you say goodbye
A chip on my shoulder
In this ending night
Will there be much left?
Can there be much left
When you get home?
