A mighty stranger (2)

Give me hope in silence
It's easier, it's kinder
Tell me not of heartbreak
It plagues my soul, it plagues my soul
And bury me beside you
I have no hope in solitude
And the world will follow
To the earth down below

But I came and I was nothing 
Time will give us nothing 
So why did you choose to lean on 
A man you knew was falling?
