Carry Your Light

I could never really understand it
When people say life is not in our hands, but
I understand it now
'Cause we think we're always gonna find an answer
Till something happens you can never plan for
And it flips you upside down

I can't tell you it's all fine
But I'll listen till sunrise

If you need me to
I will carry your light
Keep the flame alive
While you're dying inside
I can't promise you that
Everything'll be alright
But if you want me to
I'll carry your light

You don't have to tell me, I can read it
It's written in your face, the way you're breathing
You can let it out
'Cause I'm not here to try to find a reason
I'm just here to give you something you can lean on
When you feel like breaking down

I can't tell you it's all fine
But I'll listen till sunrise

If you need me to
I will carry your light
Keep the flame alive
While you're dying inside
I can't promise you that
Everything'll be alright
But if you want me to
I'll carry your light

We can sit in silence
Or drink ourselves blind
Pretend to leave it all behind
We can sit in silence
And drink ourselves blind
Pretend to leave it all behind

If you need me to
I will carry your light
Keep the flame alive
While you're dying inside
I can't promise you that
Everything'll be alright
But if you want me to
I'll carry your light
