  • I tried to face the fight within
    But it's over
    I'm ready for the riot to begin and surrender
    I walked the path, it led me to the end, remember
    I'm caught beneath with nothing left to give, forever

    When angels fall with broken wings
    I can't give up, I can't give in
    When all is lost and daylight ends
    I'll carry you and we will live forever, forever

    Grey skies will chase the light away, no longer
    I fought the fight, now only dark remains forever

    Divided I will stand
    And I will let this end

    When angels fall with broken wings
    I can't give up, I can't give in
    When all is lost and daylight ends
    I'll carry you and we will live forever, forever

    The sun begins to rise and wash away the sky
    The turning of the tide, don't leave it all behind
    And I will never say goodbye

    When angels fall with broken wings
    I can't give up, I can't give in
    When all is lost and daylight ends
    I'll carry you and we will live forever, forever

  • Charlie M from UsaReminds me of my best friend that OD’d right next to me last year. We had been using together. I’m in recovery and I constantly want to give up, but I can’t, I have to keep going. I miss him so much and I feel guilty every day knowing that not only was I right next to him and not discouraging the drug use, but also, he never got the chance to experience the joys of recovery, and as guilty as I feel about it, I know he would’ve wanted me to recover. I will never say goodbye, and I will carry him to the end, by honoring his life by doing what he never got the chance to do, and also by helping and encouraging others to do the same.
  • Matt From Bb Home State Of Pa from About 45 Minutes From Bb Home Town I dont think the song is sad as much as it makes us emotional including the tears it brings to my eyes. It makes me think of my angel and how much I love her, she has MS btw, and it makes me realize that no matter how bad things ever get I will always be here to pick us up and carry her forever in my arms because our love will never die
  • Vanessa from GaYes it's sad but it's also saying his love is eternal, even if he can't be there physically, he is still there. And he will be waiting. This song is very emotional for me. So beautiful and expressed exactly how I feel.
    At least imo.
  • Allison from Colorado, Springs Colorado Why this song has to be so sad?
