Just
as you were leaving, I was in my own world. Keeping busy breathing. Man, I had
it all wrong.
Bridge: You went
away without telling anyone. What's to be gained in never loving anyone, just
to cheat the pain of losing someone? Don't you know some hard rain is bound to
come? There's gonna be some dark days you'll never outrun.

* * ++ Chorus: Brother, won't you lay.... your burden down? Don't you wanna find
some way you won't have to drag it around no more? When you lie awake, when you
break right down, don't you wanna find some way you won't have to drag it around
no more? Don't have to be afraid of the knock at your door.
I
have seen you dreaming. Frame-by-frame in slow-MO. Whimpering and screaming. I
could not let you go oh no.
