Lyrics
----------------
- VERSE -
----------------
I sit and wonder why my life has changed this way
My heart grows stronger with each passing day.
I don't know when I can see you again
But I know I'll love you until the end.
This life out here just isn't meant to be
I see my friends die right in front of me.
all hope is gone and my soul is numb
I sit here wondering when my time will come
------------------
- CHORUS -
------------------
Your face is always running through my mind
but I feel my life is running out of time
your love can fend me from this wall of harm
but my heart will lead me to your loving arms
----------------
- VERSE -
----------------
My eyes are burning from the tears that I shed
And these few words that I have left unsaid
The light is fading and my time is too
You must know that all my love is for you
------------------
- CHORUS -
------------------
Your face is always running through my mind
but I feel my life is running out of time
your love can fend me from this wall of harm
but my heart will lead me to your loving arms
------------------
- CHORUS -
------------------
Your face is always running through my mind
but I feel my life is running out of time
your love can fend me from this wall of harm
but my heart will lead me to your loving arms
