I see the end a coming, I feel the end is near
It may be tomorrow, it may be another year
I don't know how to breathe in when I'm filled up with fear
They say change is for a reason, well then why am I in tears?

Fall onto my knees again
Lay down with my hopelessness
Speak into the air and then
Fall asleep where pain it ends

I talked to mom and daddy but they don't have a clue
When death will seize up me when will it come for you
Is there something more to dying, is there a place I will go to?
Or do we all just end up lying in dirt inside a tomb?

Fall onto my knees again
Lay down with my hopelessness
Speak into the air and then
Fall asleep where pain it ends

I understand your sorrow, I've felt all of your pain
You may not have tomorrow but through me is life to gain
My child I want to tell ya this life is not in vain
I wrote you in my story, I'll wash you in my rain
You've hurt me once before, child, and many times here since
But all I want from you is to be your closest friend
Believe in me my child and when death comes to your door
I'll take you home with me, child, to live forevermore

Fall onto my knees again
Lay down with this confidence
Pray to thee, my God, my friend
Fall asleep where peace begins
