I've been watching you from a distance
The distance sees through your disguise
All I want from you is your hurting
I want to heal you
I want to save you from the dark

Give unto me your troubles
I'll endure your suffering
Place onto me your burden
I'll drink your deadly poison

Why should I care if they hurt you
Somehow it matters more to me
Than if I were hurting myself
Save you (save you)
I'll save you

Give unto me your troubles
I'll endure your suffering
Place onto me your burden
I'll drink your deadly poison

Fear not the flame of my love's candle
Let it be the sun in your world of darkness
Give unto me all that frightens you
I'll have your nightmares for you
If you sleep soundly

Give unto me your troubles
I'll endure your suffering
Place onto me your burden
I'll drink your deadly poison

Fear not the flame of my love's candle
Let it be the sun in your world of darkness
Give unto me all that frightens you
I'll have your nightmares for you
If you sleep soundly

Fear not the flame of my love's candle
Let it be the sun in your world of darknes

    General Comment:This song is so beautiful. The lyrics, piano, and her voice. I dedicated it to my best friend because I'd rather me feel pain and hurt for her, so that she could be happy.

    General Comment:There are many interpretations if this song that I feel are very accurate. I think that she is in love with someone, or has a very close friend that is grieving over lost love or a death and she cannot bear to see them in such pain. I think she feels powerless, but would do anything to take their pain away.
