I have seen peace
I have seen pain
Resting on the shoulders
Of your name
Do you see the truth
Through all their lies
Do you see the world
Through troubled eyes
And if you want to
Talk about it anymore
Lie here on the floor
And cry on my shoulder
I'm a friend

I have seen birth
I have seen death
Lived to see a lovers
Final breath
Do you see my guilt
Should I feel fright
Is the fire of hesitation
Burning bright
And if you want to
Talk about it once again
On you I depend
I'll cry on your shoulder
You're a friend
You and I have been through many things
I'll hold on to your heart
I wouldn't cry for anything
But don't go tearing your life apart

I have seen fear
I have seen faith
Seen the look of anger
On your face
And if you want to
Talk about what will be
Come and sit with me
And cry on my shoulder
I'm a friend
And if you want to
Talk about it anymore
Lie here on the floor
And cry on my shoulder
Once again
Cry on my shoulder
I'm a friend
