It's been cold here So many days without sunshine it's hanging on tight This dark winter light In like a lion Out like a hunter preying on what little time We have left in our lives And if you fall down Fall down I will be there on my knees So when you break down Break down I'll wipe the tear from your cheek Put you back when you're weak Piece by piece Let the sky open Let it crack through the thundering Tear through the shuddering night Let it drown us in light Let the clouds roll in Let them open their mouths like a wail Let it rain for days We need that rain And if you fall down Fall down I will be there on my knees So when you break down Break down I'll wipe the tear from your cheek Put you back when you're weak Piece by piece Oh piece by piece My only father Staring right into the face of that hurricane tide I'm right here beside So if you fall down Fall down I will be there on my knees So when you break down Break down I'll sing you to sleep Put you back when you're weak Piece by piece
