Down Where I Am

(album: Touched By The Crimson King - 2005)

Isn't it great to see
How life begins
Things may change
Let the joy begin
Can you hear this new life crying?
Breathe it out it will be worth it
Show me a newborn smile
Please tell me why
I don't want to hold you
I don't want to see you
Please tell me why
Cause even your smile hurts
Oh it hurts like hell

Isn't it good to see how life begins
There's no sin and there's no crime
Down where I am
There's no bitter end at all
This bitterness is endless
Keeps going on and on
I don't want to hold you
I don't want to see you
Even birth can bear disgrace
I don't want to hold you
I don't want to see you
Or even the smile upon your face

I fear my heart and fear my soul
And all the things that are unknown
There's a chance things will turn wrong my friend
Far too fast I'm losing ground
Well let's face it here it now
You're not welcome you should know

I fear my heart and fear my soul
Life goes on it surely will

Without me I wonder
Will I ever see light again?
Will I ever see light again?
Life goes on

I don't want to hold you
I won't want to see you
A tear of joy turned into grey
And I can't stand it anymore
I don't want to hold you
I don't want to see you
A tear of joy turned into grey
Now sadness reigns
I don't want to hold you
I don't want to see you
A tear of joy turned into grey
Son there is no healing hand
I don't want to hold you
I don't want to see you
A tear of joy turned into grey

Down where I am
That's where darkness grows
And silence is your only friend
