The Sorrow and the Strong

I am the sorrow and the strong
just know that I'll be the one
to carry on
this life that I call my own

I can't help but listen to your heart cry out
it's wondering when will it ever find a love
like the one's that they all share

You see it every day
it even comes to you in the dark
the heartache that just won't go away
the pain that comes after the love

The tears fall so unwillingly
they can be most inappropriate
you don't want everyone to see
how it cuts you oh so deep

I am the sorrow and the strong
just know that I'll be the one
to carry on
this life that I call my own

You call to God to end it all
saying you can't take it anymore
when will it finally be your turn
haven't you paid your dues

No answer nor any sign
he just leaves you to your own
all you get is the time it takes
to finally heal yourself

I am the sorrow and the strong
just know that I'll be the one
to carry on
this life that I call my own

I can wait until it's done
until you finally call me home
this life that you call your own

It's me that will be there
for you when you return
