Dm Bb Dm This world asks for so much Despite what you give it's just never enough Bb Then you're left cold tired and alone Searching for something that's already gone Dm You try not to be afraid Bound down by all of these things that they say Bb And you feel like you're all by yourself But I'll be right here when there's nothing else Dm Bb Lay down F C Dm Bb Rest here in peace in my arms now F C Knowing you're safe Dm Bb From the storms and the rain F C And from all of your pain Dm Bb F C Dm And I'll be here when only the silence remains Bb Only the silence remains Dm Your fears they know that you're scared Wherever you go they seem to meet you there Bb And you face them all on your own Never the weak always the strong Dm And you win most of the time Never once claiming that victory's mine Bb And you carry this burden alone But this candle's burned at both ends for so long Dm Bb Lay down F C Dm Bb Rest here in peace in my arms now F C Knowing you're safe Dm Bb From the storms and the rain F C And from all of your pain Dm Bb F C Dm And I'll be here when only the silence remains (Dm Bb) Dm Bb Lay down Dm Bb Lay down Dm Bb Lay down F C Dm Bb Rest here in peace in my arms now F C Knowing you're safe Dm Bb From the storms and the rain F C And from all of your pain Dm Bb F C Dm Bb And I'll be here when only the silence remains F C Dm Bb Rest here in peace in my arms now F C Knowing you're safe Dm Bb From the storms and the rain F C And from all of your pain Dm Bb F C Dm And I'll be here when only the silence remains
