Down The Road

I’ve been down the road
Of fear and madness
Under a shroud of frost
Without you
I’ve been down the road
Of crying and weakness
Feeling hurt and lost
Without you
The sleepless nights
The unanswered prayers
The dawn lights
I’ve been down the road
Of desolation
Holding my own head
In my hands
I’ve been down the road
Of ruination
Sinking with my bed
Into the shifting sands
The absent voices / just call my name
The weight of silence / I’m here with you
The distant noises / don’t be afraid
And all that it means
We’re so fragile
Can’t you see how fragile we are
Just hold my hand and I’m blessed
Please give me a shelter to rest
'cos we’re so fragile like a butterfly’s wings
I’ve been down the road
Of powerlessness
Searching for a sign
In the dark
I’ve been down the road
Of my awareness
Opening my eyes
And my heart
A wordless scream / just call my name
The empty feeling / I’m here with you
A broken dream / we’ll meet again
And all that it means
We’re so fragile
Can’t you see how fragile we are
Just hold my hand and I’m blessed
Please give me a shelter to rest
'cos we’re so fragile like a butterfly’s wings
