that's just me

I'll carry your heart with me
through the rain and lightning
lift you up above the crashing sea
as we cross the great divide
I'll never let you crumble

I could save the world and still lose myself
that's just how I work
make the sun glow when it gets tired
but I'd freeze from cold and bitter words
I could fill the ocean up with all my tears
never let the moon fail to shine
but I'd be lost in the darkness, left behind
I could hold everyone up out of sinking sand
but I couldn't save myself...
that's just how i am
that's just me

I'll carry your soul with me
through the drought and thunder
shelter you from the fallacies
as we dance across the tide
I'll never let you stumble

I could save the world and still lose myself
that's just how I work
make the sun glow when it gets tired
but I'd freeze from cold and bitter words
I could fill the ocean up with all my tears
never let the moon fail to shine
but I'd be lost in the darkness, left behind
I could hold everyone up out of sinking sand
but I couldn't save myself...
that's just how i am
that's just me

Oh, I would never wish the stars to burn
I'll put them back where they belong if they have fallen
but I'd get lost in the galaxy
get stuck a nightmare saving your fantasy
Oh, that's just the way it goes
that's just me
