What I Fear Might Happen

violence had me locked in chains
almost turned me into remains
the only road i'd hoped to go
has sunken in the undertow

i wanted to cross that bridge, i wanted to
i wanted to cross that bridge

then you came 'round and took my hand
who knew i'd be a changed man
you picked me up and set my head straight
no longer lost on depressed ways

i wanted to cross that bridge, i wanted to
i wanted to cross that bridge

if this is happiness, why'd i have to find it by myself?
you came and went so quickly

i didn't have time to appreciate it while it was there
