Analysis of Graceless...
Don't hold your tears back,
Don't let me go,
Living in pain is all that you know.
I'm here to free you just let your soul go,
If ever you should fall,
Don't forget that I will catch you
My heart dies when I'm without you
My soul weeps when you are weak.
You need guidence, You need true love
You chase the bad boys, while they confess
all you are is their toys
You've been beaten and abused
Your tattered and torn
Fallen but not lost
you may be saved if only you trust
I can be that provider, that star in the sky
you wish upon every nite
Push me away, and still i will stand
catching all the tears as they fall
My heart is torn between love and lies
Forever is never and love is blind
These tears are lies
Falling like rain, leading to these ties
binds that hold us
Fears that break us
Missing those lies that rolled from your lips
risking my fate for your heart
Falling from grace, now losing reality
endless searching in nothing and fallen from grace...
