As You Lay

Have you ever thought you would lay
Beneath the scar of an old dream?
The ground is open wide
But I can't hear you scream
But they can't hear you scream

It was a war which was never meant to end
I carry your sorrow within me
Bury your need to defend
Over what was left from a land

I can't breathe
When I hear you
Crying inside
Let go your regrets
And trust for a peace of mind

I'd never thought you would lay
Side by side to a dream without a way
And you wish you were here
So you could finally hear
My deepest fear
