let me bare your pain...

By Sin

let me bare your pain tonight
and take away your tears
because the sadness in your eyes
weighs heavy on my soul

~*~

see yourself through my eyes
and know your worth

~*~

let me bestow upon you
the compassion that our god lacks
give you wings
so you can soar
and return to the sky where you belong

~*~

ill carry your cross
to ease your heavy burden
if youd only let me

~*~

so let go of all those past tragedies
and have faith in me


~*~

my love may be flawed
but it will never falter
and i feel your every injury as if it were my own
and every tear you cry
is multiplied in my eyes a hundred times over
and every time your broken heart beats in pain
another of my scars cracks open

~*~

so let your blood be not shed
and cry no more

~*~

let me bare your pain
after all
what are friends for
