you are still burning
  the flame that is turning
  my smoldering ash into a bird
  so stay close my brother
  I couldn't stand the loss
  you are the bridge of action
  I need you to help me cross
  I need you to help me
    [Chorus]
  so when you break
  my arms I'll take hold of you
  I know your hearts a hand that takes hold of me
    my hand that is breaking
  is the hand that is making
  all the dead things in me grow
  a gift of a holy loss
  this burning at the dross
    [Chorus]
  so when you break
  my arms I'll take hold of you
  I know your hearts a hand that takes hold of me
    [Bridge]
  why do you set out to break the one thing
  the one thing that I have to give
  its hard to believe that I could
  that I should begin again
  but I know you heart is a hand
    [Chorus]
  so when I break
  your arms you'll take hold of me
  you know my hearts a hand that takes hold of you
  so when you break
  my arms I'll take hold of you
  I know your hearts a hand that takes hold of me
  so when you break
  my arms I'll take hold of you
  I know your hearts a hand that takes hold of me
