You carried me,
You carried me in love.
So let me carry,
Carry you to rest.
I'm not always so formal,
But today I'll do my best.
Suit and tie,
Dressed to depress.
Suit and tie,
Dressed to depress.
A final word.
A deep regret.
A solemn sight,
I won't forget.
A quiet voice (a quiet voice),
From down the hall (from down the hall).
Pull the curtain.
Take it all away.
Take it all away.
Take it all away.
Take it all away.
An everlasting sentiment,
Spoken through youth.
Comforting hands,
Holding things together,
As they collapse upon themselves.
Heavy shoulders.
Swollen eyes.
The fear of hearing last goodbyes.
Heavy shoulders.
Swollen eyes.
The fear of hearing last goodbyes.
You hid your tears,
Behind closed doors.
I shed enough,
For the both of us.
A carried flame.
A broken heart.
Staying strong,
Just to fall apart.
