Annie Lyrics

She lays her head down like the fight is so unfair

10 minutes at a time is how she survives

When there are no spoons left to give away

Did you know, the bravest thing you did was loose control

That's often what it takes to shed the smoke

And it's those who loose their life that find the gold

So raise your head

The waves will wash up on the shore

Press you back against the rock till you feel the moon

Annie, I know you're scared

But the thoughts won't kill - they'll only stare

And I got your hand, and your fearful heart

Breathe now, Annie, you're held

I know, the demons come at almost anytime

Takes all your strength to challenge those strange lies

But just because you thought it doesn't mean it's true

So bow your head- watch the fear return to gas

Press your hand against the dog till you feel the pulse

Annie, I know it's dark

When your eyes adjust, you'll see the spark

What do you trust? Where do you stand?

On our hands Annie, you're held

So bend your knees

Spring returns to everything

And place your hand

Against your heart till you feel the warmth

Annie I know one day

You'll feel again and laugh again

And play again and rise again

You'll wake up Annie with deep sight

You'll wake up Annie wide-eyed
