Lyrics
You never really show it
You consistently conceal your true feelings
You never really let it out
You seldom express your emotions openly
But I can see heaviness
I sense a burden or sadness in you
When I look in your eyes
Observing your eyes reveals a weight within
You wake up in the morning
You start the day after a night without meaningful dreams
From another dreamless night
A night where your dreams are absent
Wiping up tears that fall
You wipe away tears shed during the night
By the cigarette pile
Tears that collect near a pile of discarded cigarettes
Go lay down your heavy armor
Drop the burdensome emotional defenses
There's peace in the valley where you lay
Find peace in a place of tranquility
I know that you hide under the dark to be safe
You seek safety in darkness
Just know that I'll be waiting with you
I assure you, I'll be there waiting for you
'Til the light breaks through
Until the moment when positivity prevails
I know it isn't easy
Acknowledging the challenges you face
I know that everything you've tried
Understanding the difficulty of your efforts
Never unlocked the door
Previous attempts did not open the emotional barriers
That your heart is behind
Your true emotions are guarded
I swear you're gonna find it
I am confident you will discover it
I promise it'll be alright
I promise it will eventually be okay
And I will be with you there
I will be by your side in that moment
On the other side
On the brighter side of the situation
Go lay down your heavy armor
Discard your emotional defenses
There's peace in the valley where you lay
Experience peace in the tranquil place you rest
I know that you call out in the dark to be saved
You reach out for help in moments of darkness
Just know that I'll be waiting with you
Assurance that I'll be patiently waiting
Ya gotta know that I'll be waiting with you
Reassurance of continued support
When the light breaks through
Anticipating the breakthrough of positivity
When the light breaks through
Repeated emphasis on the awaited positive change
Go lay down your heavy armor
Drop your emotional defenses
There's peace in the valley where it lays
Experience peace in the place it resides
I know that you hide under the dark to be safe
You find solace in the safety of darkness
Just know that I'll be waiting with you
Continued assurance of waiting in support
Darlin' know that I'll be waiting with you
Affectionate reassurance of continued waiting
'Til the light breaks through
Reiteration of waiting until positive change occurs
