how long, how long can this go on?
how long before you don't want to get up out of bed?
where are the angels, and how can they leave you so alone?
so weary and worn inside and out

peeling back layers, I'm feeling the weight this far away
it's stealing the favor from me fast

I am with you, holding your heart
it's too heavy inside your delicate skin
I'm with you, but it tears me apart -
I can't hold you to blame for somebody else's sin

don't wait any longer - you're not gonna hear apologies
just swallow the bullshit with a spoonful of salt to kill the seed
it's gonna get better when you learn to love you like I do
you're worth the trouble it takes to pull you through

I am with you, holding your heart
it's too heavy inside your delicate skin
I'm with you, but it tears me apart -
I can't hold you to blame for somebody else's sin

Bridge
you should know (you should know) I've got my own;
I can't hold you up alone
I can't mend or heal your heart
but I can be your welcome home

[ Instrumental-Bridge ]

I am with you, holding your heart
it's too heavy inside your delicate skin
with you now, oh...
I'm with you
