I hear your hollow laughter
Your sighs of secret pain
Pretending and inventing
Just to hide your shame
Plastic smiles and faces
Blinkin' back the tears
Empty friends and places
All magnify your fears
If you're tired and weary
Weak and heavy laden
I can understand how
It feels to be alone
I will take your burden
If you'll let Me love you
Wrap My arms around you
Give your heart a home
It hurts to watch you struggle
And try so hard to win
But trade your precious birthright
For candy-coated sin
Wasting priceless moments
Restless and confused
Building up defenses
For fear that you'll be used
Your sighs of secret pain
Pretending and inventing
Just to hide your shame
Plastic smiles and faces
Blinkin' back the tears
Empty friends and places
All magnify your fears
If you're tired and weary
Weak and heavy laden
I can understand how
It feels to be alone
I will take your burden
If you'll let Me love you
Wrap My arms around you
Give your heart a home
It hurts to watch you struggle
And try so hard to win
But trade your precious birthright
For candy-coated sin
Wasting priceless moments
Restless and confused
Building up defenses
For fear that you'll be used
