There is a silence 
Beating heart you know
If you break 
And you fall 
It will cradle your soul
Whispering your sorrow 
Dip it in the dark
Leave it on the ground right there 
Right where you are

There's a light still shining in heaven
What a painful way to love
There's a fire burning around us
Just hold on

There's a heart that's breaking 
Timid and alone
Terrified of living  
Paralyzed by love
Weathered and beaten 
Broken and lost
Find your heart somewhere in there 
Before it is gone

There's a light still shining in heaven
What a painful way to love
There's a fire burning around us
Just hold on

There is a darkness 
It's got me by the hand
Leading me through the back woods 
To some unknown land
Wrapped it's arms around me 
Kept me within
Tamed me to love 
Then taught me how to sin

There's a light still shining in heaven
What a painful way to love
There's a fire burning around us
Just hold on
Just hold on
Just hold on
Just hold on
Just hold on
