Carry this, I can't hold the hand that you gave me Shattered like glass and I don't know how this story got twisted around Beautiful, when you were pure and fragile Outgrew your skin just as soon as you had learned what this world is about Dim the light, ready or not Walk the mile, ready or not Let the waves of cold lives crash upon the sunshine In the end, we can't fight this battle forever One of us wins while the other mourns the soul that he had to lay down Dim the light, ready or not Walk the mile, ready or not Let the waves of cold lives crash upon the sunshine Helpless in the way I feel when you are gone Helpless in the way I feel when you are gone Dim the light, ready or not Walk the mile, ready or not Let the waves of cold lives crash upon the sunshine Dim the light, ready or not Walk the mile, ready or not Let the waves of cold lives crash upon the sunshine
