blood muscle skin & bone

you're still alive inside somewhere

or are you just remains?

you're blood muscle skin and bone

so people cause you pain

but when the skies are crashing down

and when my days are dark and grey

when my fires are burning low

when the life inside me fades

i know that i can count on you

because you never let me lie

you bring the truth back to me

you bring my back to life

i need somebody strong

for when i'm feeling weak

with an open heart that can listen

for when my soul is too tired to speak

i need somebody strong

for when i'm feeling weak

with an open heart that can listen

for when my soul is too tired to speak

there's a place i call my home

where the sun falls down on me

the light fills in the shadows there

and peace of mind is free

but far below that place

a tear forms in my eye

the shadows have no foe there

and darkness multiplies

i know that i can count on you

because you've never lead me astray

you bring the truth back to me now

you always light my way

i need somebody strong

for when i'm feeling weak

with an open heart that can listen

for when my soul is too tired to speak

i need somebody strong

for when i'm feeling weak

with an open heart that can listen

for when my soul is too tired to speak

i need somebody strong

for when i'm feeling weak

with an open heart that can listen

for when my soul is too tired to speak

i need somebody strong

for when i'm feeling weak

with an open heart that can listen

for when my soul is too tired to speak
