[Verse 1]
We stood there, bullet for words
Far too scared to shoot first
It exploded from your mouth
The war, it started and then it all
Calmed down now

[Pre-Chorus]
In the bliss and the tears
And in the ash, I can see
You and me, we're no good in the aftermath

[Chorus]
I'll be there, I'll be there
For you to stay, to go
Oh, in the meantime, I'll be there
If you want me to, once the dust has settled

[Verse 2]
Forgive me father for I have sinned
I tricked him into thinking that I loved him
I tasted your water and I felt the blood
Oh Lord I know exactly what I've become now

[Pre-Chorus]
Hear the grace and the tears
And in the ash, I can see
You and me, we're no good in the aftermath
[Chorus]
I'll be there, I'll be there
For you to stay, to go
Oh, in the meantime, I'll be there
If you want me to, once the dust has settled
I will have the time
I'll be there
I'll be there for you
Oh, in the meantime
I'll be there for you
