My feet plow on From light to dawn My empty belly and my body aches Ain’t hard to take Next to the weight I carry in my chest A pound of flesh Could never tip the scale that I’ve made I should have stayed But I was never wise I hear your voices in the wind that cuts the night And I pray to whatever is listening things’ll be all right Oh, my boy, you're alive Your heart's still beating So don’t you mind, don’t you mind We all drift sometimes I can still hear your feet as you ran from the house Knowing you won’t be back doesn’t mean that I will stop waiting You told me then, hold me down, hold me up to the fire But don’t you dare hold me back Whoa… I see your face's in the clouds that scar the night And I pray to whoever is listening things’ll be all right Then today I wake up feeling easy And find I’m on the more familiar roads I got a darkness wrapped inside me But now it ain’t so hard to let it go So keep a candle burning in the window I’m almost home
