There's only so much you can take,
before you break.

There's only so far I can walk,
Running from all the talk.

I'd like to give it all away,
setting the pain at bay.

But I couldn't leave you here,
never again to hold you near.

So together we stay,
or end this today.

Either way I'm at your side,
because in you the pain I can hide.
