lyrics

Fragile

woke up this evening
Dad’s calling back again
can’t get off the couch
can’t say the words out loud

just to hear your voice
you’d say it’s gonna be ok
my life without you
starts today

why does the dark bleed into the light?
when did hope leave our sight?
how am I to keep steady on this track of life?
too heavy a load for this fragile soul

staring at your smile
this photo caught the fire in your eyes
it hits me every time
your life was such a light

left us with this weight
slow motion blackened haze
my life without you
it’s not the same

why does the dark bleed into the light?
when did hope leave our sight?
how am I to keep steady on this track of life?
too heavy a load for this fragile soul

I am so weary
I need rest
I am so weary
heavy burdened, I need rest

I am so weary
(come to me)
heavy burdened, I need rest
(heavy burdened I, I will give you rest)

I am so weary
(come to me)
heavy burdened, I need rest
(heavy burdened, I , I will give you rest)

heavy burdened, I...
(come to me, I will give you rest)

heavy burdened, I...
(come to me, I will give you rest)

one day the dark will fade into light
I will trust that hope can give us sight
somehow I’ll keep steady on this track of life
too heavy a load for this fragile soul
